Dive Tioman Island

It was first ever island trip with family (Aqilis included!) at Tioman Island, Pahang, Malaysia during Eid Al-fitr long holidays.

Stay at Tioman Dive Resort, Ayer Batang Bay (ABC) and also dive with them as well. B & J Diving Centre in ABC is a 5 star PADI IDC equiped with bar and swimming pool. They also have a big boat and you will definitely like the 'giant stride entry' and fun diving experience with them.

Sunset @ Muara Ikan Bakar Tanjung Harapan

Qaiser Aqilis and mummy watching sunset

It will never get better than this at Muara Ikan Bakar Tanjung Harapan....

Bagan Lalang feels too far? Why not try this Muara Ikan Bakar Seafood at Tanjung Harapan, Port Klang. I went several times to this area to eat Chinese seafood but never try this one.

Book your table early to get the best view of fantastic sunset at Tanjung Harapan while enjoying your 'ikan bakar' and seafood. There is also variety of others local food to choose like nasi lemak and satay.

Don't forget to walk by the beach after dinner to see the night market along Tanjung Harapan. For me, the easiest way to get here is by Kesas Highway exit to Klang North Port.

Master Diver Malxn @ Payar Island Underwater

It was my second trip to Payar Island Marine Park, Langkawi ex Swettenham Pier, Penang. My first time was 3 years ago but it was not so enjoyable compared to this one!

Payar Island can be reach by ferry either from Langkawi or Penang Island. For mine I just book from Langkawi Coral and depart from the Zone 2 next to the cruise ship bay.

After 1 hour and 45 minutes I reach Payar Reef Platform. I was surprised because there were no other tourist except me and 1 Singaporean couple. 'Owh ya.. it's a weekday and not yet a school holiday'.

Dive with East Marine Divers, Langkawi

After a while a boat transport me to the Payar Island. 15 minutes later a dive boat from East Marine Divers arrived, boarding the boat and prepare myself for dive. After 1 dive they tranport us back to the the island for lunch and follow by another dive..

Seahorse

Black tip sharks and beach view

Both dives was great. Coral bleaching is minimal and you can even sport more marine life here than other places on the west coast. I even spot a Seahorse! The wrecks is small but worth to dive to see the diversity of marine life and vegetation. For snokellers they can even feeding the baby sharks on the island.

Dive with Rubiah Tirta Divers, Weh Island, Indonesia

Our 2nd Anniversary this year we went to Weh Island, Sabang, Indonesia near Banda Aceh. All I can say it was a romantic and exicting getaways. Weh Island and Freddies Santai Sumur Tiga it's like 'Heaven on Earth'.

Thanks to Pak Darlin for helping us get around Banda Aceh on our first time trip. The trip to Kapal PLTD Apung, Tsunami Museum and 'Kapal atas rumah' was amazing. The taste of Aceh local cuisine like 'Soto Lontong', 'Ayam Tangkap' and 'Mee Aceh' will stay in our mind forever..

Aqilis stayed with Nenda while we were on vacation

On Weh Island, Sumur Tiga is a perfect beach for couples, honeymooners and families. Crystal clear water and white sandy beach. Thanks to Pak Leman or 'Brother Leman' for taking us with his 'bechak' to see all around the island. Don't forget to try the tasty 'Mee Sabang', 'Bakso' and 'Sate Gurita'.
