Lumut and Pangkor

The owner is in blue.

The last time, I came here was more than 30 years ago with my uni friends. Pangkor was different , Last week, I was there with my faithfully friend. We stayed in Anjung in Teluk Nipah. Rented a scooter from the jetty and rode on a small machine with our luggage. Luckily, she was a good driver . I was more afraid than her. I enjoyed the cold breeze up the hilly slope leading to anjung.

Walking distance from Anjung

14 year old guide. His driving skill is awesome.

First time I was near to durians waiting to be eaten. Yummy

Beautiful sunset in Pangkor

daddy's cafe beachfront

see... reachable.

Aung is a quite peaceful away from the town. The best part was the beach is in front and a lovely makan place nearby for dinner... Daddy's cafe.The view from this cafe is priceless cos it is beach front. As you eat, you can hear the waves rushing to the shore. Furthermore, the cafe is litted with cute oil- lamp at nite. You will not miss it.I have to say that the food is a bit pricey compared to local stalls nearby but the view is omp.

Lunch for 2
As for lunch, many local stalls are available, you must try the local fresh fish   right from the sea. My lunch was only RM9 for two of us. In this lovely place, i seriously prefer fish.


Next... stop a durian plantation on a small scale next to a temple. It was by accident that I found the place. After, offering my prayer to the local temple, I sat durian trees. Took a short walk there. The owner is a very friendly guy. He sold us last durian since it was already late in the evening. I must say  .. I am NO durian lover at all. The last durian that I had was 30 years ago. After all the pursue, I tried. It was yummy cos it was bitter and sweet. We were invited to visit again the next morning. He promised us that he will have better ones . Truly, we went back after breakfast, we were too happy to see that he was waiting for us. Again, we ate delicious durians right from the tree.


After that, we went to a nearby island.. Coral Island to do some snokerlling, my guide is a local boy of 14 years old. He is so expert with the boat that made me think .. he was born in the sea. Faisal is his name. I enjoyed the sea very much. It is good to be in the open sea. Had the chance to feed fish with bread. The fish just ate from our hands.
Apart from the beach and durian, I must say that i enjoyed the local satay fish which is fresh but bad for the diet.
In conclusion: a nearby place from Selangor to relax and try fresh fish and durian. The people in Pangkor is friendly and helpful.
