The Island where it began and where it ended.

The Island

       This is a story about my adventure in Pulau Perhentian and also the first time I went on a trip without my parents or any family relatives. I went there to create a photobook for my photography class. Oh yeah, I went there with the whole class that takes photography class, we used two buses to get there, it was a little bit packed but the more the merrier right? When we reach the jeti in Kuala Besut, we got onto 2 small boat to get to the island, the boat that I was in, was quite fun since the captain of the boat let one of my friend, Raziq steer the boat, and we were the first group that arrived on the island even thought we were the last one to depart from the jeti.

       When we reached there, we were a bit shocked at the place where we were supposed to get some shut eye since it was in a really bad shape. If I had to describe it, the room or dorm is so messy and filled with sand on the floor and the beds were in a bad shape since everything is broken or not in a good condition. So with that being said, I had to sleep outside on the first night right next to the beach. To be honest, sleeping outside wasn’t that bad since I slept outside with a bunch of friends and we talked for hours, it was really fun and we get to watch the starry skies and listen to the ocean waves while we get some shut eye.

       On the next day, we went on a snorkeling trip around the island nearby, it took us around 5 hours to finish our snorkeling trip which was superb and every moment in the water was amazing since we saw a lot of corals, sea turtle, and baby sharks. We also came out with a few cuts thanks to the corals. On the last day of the trip we packed our things and said our farewell to the island. We departed from the island’s jeti with a sad face since we had a lot of great memories from it and had to leave so soon.
