Part 6 - Departing Perhentian

21 Sept 2013

We checked out by 11 am, Sat morning. 

Reception

Upon arrival two days ago, the reception had asked us for our return boat ticket. This is to inform the boat operator of our scheduled time for pick-up.

They also put up the departure list in the morning of our departure day. Looking at the departure list, we learnt that if you do not want to get into a boat above its capacity, go for the early morning boat. The 8.00am boat scheduled 10pax while the 12pm boat scheduled 19 pax + 7 children. 

We waited for almost 45mins and departed close to 1.00pm.

The jetty - helps as you need not get your feet wet when you enter or exit the boat

While waiting for the boat, the children played on the  jetty, trying to spot mudhoppers.

The lobby -  traditional Malay design

A replica of a Malay village house in the lobby

 

The resort's Sea-View/Beach Chalet - we wished we had stayed here it comes 
with balcony, deck-chair and hammock - very cosy

We also took some pictures of the exterior of the resort.

Signage in the lobby

Try guessing what this is??? Answer is at the bottom of this page.

Luckily, the driver of this boat did not speed.  He 
also ensured all of us put on our life jackets. 

By 1.45pm, we were back in Kuala Besut jetty. 

 Boat ride back to Kuala Besut

We had our lunch and shopped for souvenirs 

here. Then, we started our drive back to KL.

Long, long drive. Distance from Kuala Besut - KL 

is roughly 460km. This time we didn't use the 

Coastal Road as the drive is longer, instead we took 

the Jerangau Highway. There were so many 

lorries along this stretch carrying oil palm fruits. 

We saw miles and miles of Felda oil palm plantations. 

We reached KL at 9.30pm. 

 

Answer : Garbage bin or Tong Sampah in Malay (did u guess correct?)
