hehe.. who doesn't love Beach, Sun, Sea and babes ?

i strongly suggest Pulau Rawa, it's the best island i've ever been to so far.
totally isolated from the city, crystal clear blue water, an ultimate getaway.
Great for scuba divers, snorklers, or just stay there a few days to sun tan..
seriously, Rawa wins Redang hands down.. hehe..

some birdeye view photo:

took from the cliff at the end of a trekking path


These corals are just off the beach !! visible even if you don't touch water


One of the chalets, it's a fantastic 4d3n stay!

Where is this place ???

[berlyn]

aiyo...pulau rawa is so exotic....i love going to beach..but i dislike the idea of staying in the water....eeeeeeeeeeeeee...........snorkeling, diving.....phew...outta my mind...i rather puke on the boat than snorkeling....dumb right? that's when my bf is so frustrated with me when it comes to travelling.....island off....mountaneous area off too...only city...but city i dun like....so..kinda hard on him...hehe.....maybe i was from a very suburb area before i move out to Johor....petrified when someone suggests camping....or trekking...

i've been to perhentian....quite good....going pangkor this december....hope can retrieve some good stuff from there....1st visit...

i would suggest MAURITIOUS for honeymoon...what do you reckon?

[Chiii]

berlyn -- wow.. seems like it's very hard to bring u for travelling huh? well, if u are scared of sea sick, then why not just take the pill? soaking at the water can be really fun.. water sports also very fun. u going to pangkor? i have been there a lot of times... if u are staying at pan pacific hotel.. or another hotel... cant remember the name.. u should have a lot of fun.. if u stay at another hotels other than this two... then i think pangkor is not fun.. not trying to spoil ur mood lah... but pan pacific offfered better facillities. anyway, have fun!! =) yeah, heard tat maritius is nice.. and i have seen the brochure before... the beaches are very nice over there.

club admin -- where is pulau rawa? i have been to pangkor, tioman, and langkawi only...

[shadowprincess]

[h0043337]

shadowprincess, @ least you been to langkawi and pangkor..

i only been to desaru and bintan.. got beach but not island..

[elle]

i really want tyo go to redang i even promoted pulau redang to my lecturer though i didnt go there before lol

[Ques]

I love enjoying the sea breeze in the evening/early in the morning too...if it coupled with a spa session with sea view is even mroe SYIOK! wahaha am i thinking too much?

[k3n]

Hi Hi...

Pulau Rawa is an island off South Johore, you can travel to Mersing, and then take a 30mins boat to Pulau Rawa, if you take out the Malaysia Map, there're a couple of island flocked together, Pulau Rawa, Pulau Sibu, Pulau Tinggi, Pulau Besar and several other paradise like islands.

i don't need to go all out to snorkel to see the corals, why ? because the corals are RIGHT AT THE BEACH !!! berlyn, i think you will love this ! cause you don't need to go deep into the water to see the corals... tell your bf to bring you there, it's really a nice place.

and there's this trekking path to go up to the highest point of the island, it's a cliff, and when you can see sun rise there, Geezz it's an unforgetable moment.. so exotic.. i'll try to post some of the pictures i took during my last visit

[berlyn]

hehe.....i dun have sea sick....it just that my wild imagination that obstruct me from going further...you know what chii....i was accompanied by the agent when we snorkelled coz i asked my bf to snorkel on his own....in a way, he can get to enjoy himself...wouldnt want to burden him with the undecided me....so, i went in to feed fishes with the crumbs....

the view is exotic...with colourful fishes around me...still, i cant stop myself from having the thoughts that the shark is near me or the monster...sounded stupid right?? sigh....no one can cure this....

Talking about redang, i think perhentian is quite nice also....it's ju7st next to redang....perhentian is more original coz redang is too packed with visitors....think u get what i mean...

oh yeah, i'll be staying at teluk dalam...dunno whta place is that...going with my colleagues....hope that place doesnt suck! hopefully the toilet's condition is good too....wish me luck...

[Chiii]

berlyn -- telok dalam... hmm.. sounds familiar leh... i think should be ok... well, im sure everything will be fine during ur trip, be sure to have fun!!

[GeniE]

ekekek.... That Pulau Rawa is sooo beautiful !! how much is it ? anyone knows ? i think if possible, i'll go end of the year...

any other island to recommend ? haven't really visit most of the islands over in East Coast

[babycoco]

aah dun tell me.. i am the worse.. i've only been to the "penang" island :X hehee..
other than that... only overseas.. never been around m'sia much..
"how proud of me being a m'sian who travel other countires but not my own!~!"

[tzewa]

wow...those pic really look intresting!! wish i could be there now ..coz i really need some relaxation...been so stress with my college assignments..

[shadowprincess]

yeah, tzewa....i also feel that beaches really have the soothing effect....dunno why....maybe its the breeze, the air, the water, the sand....

[tzewa]

shadowprincess..yup yup..iam loving it..i dunno..i just love the feeling when the cool air passes me...so refershing..really super wish i was there la..

[k3n]

you know over there, we didn't even on the air-con at night.. just open the windows and listen to the sound of ocean wave.. so calming and peaceful... and the seabreeze is so comfortable... although we taste a little salty the next morning.. but it's still very shiok

[h0043337]

Club Admin, where u stayed @ pulau rawa? i'm thinking of going during wkend.. 2d1n izzit enough?

[elfiejane]

Okay I'm going to recommend an island near my hometown..

Pulau Sipadan or Pulau Mamutik..
actually any of the Sabahan islands..

love them so much!

My bf came along during the Summer hols and I took him to Pulau Sipadan and he fell in love with it!

But I guess ALL Malaysian islands are really beautiful

[suzz]

wow.. i haven't heard of pulau rawa until now! the more commons pulaus are like, pulau tioman, redang, langkawi, blah blah blah

does pulau rawa have good food? juz kidding.. it sounds exotic, and the pics proved juz as well.. wanna try snorkelling, but am too afraid of water to attempt it.. me = self-contradictory... i love the ocean as in the metaphor way.. but i dislike it when i'm near one..

[sand]

i m island lover too....
i went to tioman, redang, langkawi, pangkor, penang.....more...
pulau rawa is really attractive!!!~
i should change my plan for my next island trip....actually i plan to go perhentian...

[shadowprincess]

how come everyone saying pulau rawa is nice? i never been there yet... must go next time since got so many recommendations

[elle]

didnt hear of it b4

[suzz]

if your name is anything to go by, sand, then it'd be pretty obvious why you like islands and all..

and yeah! maybe it's too exotic that's why most pp haven't heard of pulau rawa??

[WildBerry]
