Perhentian and Redang Trip

I WILL NEVER EVER FORGET THESE DAYS IN PULAU PERHENTIAN AND PULAU REDANG!!!
its been a good memory for me,
cuz this is the first time i saw sea which is rly... crystal clear!!! lol...
this time i went to the trip with my coll mates,
me, luppy, wendy, jern, wanling, xinying, chai fen and jia zheng...
the 8 hours bus trip was crazy,
i was sitting beside with luppy,
both of us did not stop talking b4 the bus start moving,
until midnight when other ppl were mostly fell asleep,
we just kept talking and laughing all the way,
talked bout lame stuff and some "pass experience of sth sth~~"
i always wonder what brain does luppy have,
cuz he could create a so called "HK drama" in half an hour,
and suprisingly its vry fun to listen bout it!!!!
i jz cant stop laughing!!!

we stayed at the Suhaila's resort...
well its not a resort....
its a pretty crappy place!!!
NOT PRETTY, ITS A VERY CRAPPY PLACE!!
no aircond, not even a plug point, n thr's no basin in the toilet!!!
whenever we have to charge our hp we hv to charge it at the grocery shop of that place,
and its dark inside....... and the water SMELLS!!! yew...
but luckily we had friendly people there...

the first thing we did at the beach is SWiM!!
burying ourselves in the sand too...
but thr's something called "sea lice",
which stung us when we were swimming,
feels like ant bite but it wont harm...
but its scary cuz u cant rly see the sea lice,
u wont know whr is it!!!



our first boat trip is all along pulau perhentian...
we went for snorkeling at few sites,
which i really enjoy it a lot!!
the corals and the sea creatures we saw is so so...
how can i describe... like im watching national geographic on live??
everything seems so real!!!!!
i saw fish pooping in the sea,
its like... shooting their shit out into the sea and we're in it... XP
we saw quite a lot of fish...
the rare bump head fish, sharks, sea turtle, lots more and more!!
and i rly didnt know that i would have the chance to swim with sea turtle...
NIGHT AT OUR ROOM IS... YEW!!!
me and luppy in the same room,
we're like so tired for the first night,
maybe cuz we didnt manage to get a good sleep in the bus,
we're sticky even after we showered,
cuz somehowi think its becuz of the sea breeze...
but we fell asleep fast...
but we still had another night at this room!!!!


the next day we went to Pulau Redang by boat,
it takes about 1hour to reach there form Pulau Perhentian...
at first i sat at the front seat of the boat with Luppy and Jern,
it was quite fun cuz as the boat speeds through the ocean waves,
we were bumping up n down like we're in a roller coaster ride!!
but after a while we started to suffer a bit,
cuz it hurts your butt a lot!!!!!!!!
i found Pulau Redang much more... commercial like if compared to Perhentian,
fancy resorts all along the beach...
but i also found that Pulau Redang is quite dirty!!!
the sand and sea is still beautiful,
but we saw there's one of the resort which lead the waste water INTO THE SEA!!
and its GREEN!!! luppy said yellow(pee?) + blue(sea water) = green
after that we went to snorkeling again at Redang site's,
which is quite different form Perhentian's snorkel trip,
its also a wonderful place to look at fishes another stuff,
i spent most of my time above the sea watching every movement in the water,
love it a lot!!!! and there's no sea lice in Redang's beach!!






This is one of my fav photo i took using Wendy's camera...
Wendy, Luppy and the rest went for kayak,
but i didnt follow cuz i dun wna take another risk to wet myself again,
so i took Wendy's camera and walk around as i saw this mini crab,
crawling in the sand.... its rly fast but it turn out to crawling over a same place,
so i draw i big circle in the sand, to trap the mini crab in middle,
and snap!! i took a photo of it!! so cute~~


That night we went to search for the blue sand,
which is a small sand-like which glows blue light in the dark,
we manage to found quite a lot in the wet sand,
its rly pretty to see, small small blue glows in ur hands....
too bad couldnt take pic of it, its too dim...
heard that the blue sand its actually some microorganisms,
which able release blue light, and its only visible at night!
hope i could rare those microorganisms,
would be so cool to see it glow in my own room!!

the second night Luppy could not stand of the smell of the water in our toilet,
so he descided to steal water from the Tuna Bay resort beside...
me and Wendy were in the mission together,
first we walked around the resort,
looking for empty units...
after that we went to take the empty bottles and start stealing water!!!
kekekeke...
they have pipe water in front of every unit to wash off the sand in ur feet,
so me and Luppy were like, sneaking inside,
then wash our face as fast as we could,
of course with non stop laughing,
while Wendy was wating for us in front of the resort!!
well its not like we wna steal,
but the water in our room really STINKS!!



the third day of the trip,
we actually do not have any activities...
but since our last boat back to kuala besut harbour is at 4pm,
we went for SCUBA DIVING!!!
that's the coolest thing i've ever did i guess, keke...
we're asked to put on the diving suit...
when me and Luppy were choosing our suit,
after i choose one,
one of the staff told the other staff,
"her brother will get the same size suit as her..."
.... BROTHER??! and obviously Luppy did look younger than me,
even he's 2 years older than me,
which... im old!!!!!! sob sob....
but there's also a lady who work in that place,
when she saw me and Luppy came out from the room she's like,
"HONEYMOON KAH?? HAHA..."
=.=" tuut...

scuba diving was a great experince,
the first time we used air tank in the sea,
breathe in the sea for like more than half an hour!!
and its also the first time i wore flippers to swim,
it uses a lot of energy,
but definitely helps a lot when we're diving in the sea...
and there's one MAD FISH!!
a territorialism fish i guess,
keep biting us off when we swim closer to it!!!
and that stupid Luppy, keep making fun in the water,
imagine u biting the oxygen pipe tube and you cant stop laughing!!!
bubbles keep coming out of your mouth... -.-" smmre he's doing gorrila poses!!!
i enjoy diving a lot, hope i get the 2nd chance to do it next time!!



Way back to Kuala Besut and back to KL,
its tiring, and we became dark!!
especially me!!! IM SO SO SO SO SO TANNED!!!
and its the first time i get sunburn!!!
it hurts, and now the skin is peeling off!!!
i wonder how long is it gna be for me to be fairer again....
but for sure, I WILL BE BACK!!!
BEFORE AFTER

Hi there!

I stumbled across your blog while googling "perhentian blue glowing sand".

I just recently came back from Perhentian (and Redang). Looks like I took the same trip package as you did. =)

Anyway, I did a little research and found out what the blue sand thingies are. They're tiny crustaceans from the class "Ostracoda", specifically of the "Myodocopida" sub-class. Just thought I'd let you know. (^.^)

Here's a link to the first useful reference I found (last paragraph):
