Pulau Pangkor, Perak

This was supposed to be our weekend getaway. For short holidays. Kami ke sana selama 3 hari 2 mlm. Cukup cukup dah, lama sangat nanti boring. Perjalanan dari KL took almost 4 hours to Jeti Lumut. Rasa macam lama sangat nak sampai di Lumut. Asyik berkicau dengan Azuar, bila nak sampai bila nak sampai. Dia ada trick, " Lagi 10 mins lagi yang...". Tapi tak sampai juga.

Jeti Lumut

Sampai Jeti, terus beli tiket about RM 10 (return), considered dah murah since perjalanan naik feri took 25mins macam tu. 

Sampai di Jeti Pangkor, kami terus cari Pangkor's trademark, their pink van.

Pink vans, image goggled.

The pink van charged us about RM15 to Pantai Teluk Nipah. We choose to stay at Nipah Guesthouse in Pangkor. If you ask me, it will be a biased answer. For me, Pulau Pangkor biasa-biasa saja since I dah pernah sampai Pulau Perhentian and Pulau Redang. Dont expect any crystal clear water and air menghijau itu semua hihihi. But its still enough for a short vacation. Enjoy juga main dekat pantai tu. Takkan nak pi Port Dickson, saje kan, boring juga...

I love the guest house. The accommodation itu yang I dok bising tak sabar nak pergi Pangkor. We found it in website of TripAdvisor and it received awards in 2012 and 2013. Go Google it! I fall in love with its A-frame cottage, and yes we got it.

 

So, they rate was about RM150 per day during peak days. Normally it costs RM90, when I check it in Agoda. Rasanya boleh dapat low rate. Biasanya guest house, they don't provide any breakfast, but the guesthouse come out with something different, DIY breakfast. We woke up early in the morning to cook the breakfast. I masak pancake and scramble eggs for the two boys. Bancuhan pancake dah siap, you just pour it in the pan. Tadaaa siap! They provide bread, jam, butter spread, pancake, fruits, eggs, tea, and coffee. Kat sini, customers mostly Mat Salleh, so I nak masak konon western breakfast pun segan, takut salah kan... Cuba suruh masak nasi goreng depan dorang, sure I memang confident level tinggi menggunung...

Lepas dah siap makan makan, we went to the beach, dalam 400m dari the guest house. 

My two boys.

Bermulalah aktiviti pantai kami. Adam is a happy child as always. Seronok lah dia.

 Kami juga sewa motor, membonceng pusing satu pulau. Harga sewa pun still acceptable RM20 per day.

Teluk Dalam

Horn bills are everywhere and you just feed them to make them come closer.

Petang sikit, kami ikut boat tour and snorkelling, dapat at good price juga, about RM 50 satu family dan tiada had masa. Snorkeling and swimming sampai puas, letih baru panggil boat datang ambil.

Aktiviti sama berulang untuk dua hari. Waktu sebelah malam, tak ada aktiviti sangat, just keluar jalan-jalan cari makan. Banyak kedai seafood, ikan bakar semua tapi kami datang waktu public holidays, semua tempat penuh dan mahal di sekitar Pantai Teluk Nipah. Jadi we choose to have dinner at their town. Janji kenyang, tidur lena.

That was a start for our family's holiday in this year. Seronok, priceless and as expected, SUNBURN.
