Winzzy's World Of Thoughts

Below is a detailed write-up of my 3D2N itinerary in Tioman island.

PS: Lots of pictures below..click to enlarge!

Got up early in the wee morning at 5am, had to reach DFS Galleria by 620am. Took a cab and arrived at 620am. Aft everyone has gathered, we left in the bus at 7am.

First of all, got to pass thru both checkpoints in sg and msia.. my first time so was a bit “sua ku”.. haha. I once had a bad exp of being abandoned at the customs due to my passport nv renew so when i pass thru the customs i was so relieved. Aft tat, we successfully stepped onto the roads in msia and off we go!!

Below is a pic of the Woodlands Checkpoint in sg:

Then we began to set off to Mersing. The journey to Mersing took ard 3 hrs, and the road was a little bumpy with lots of left and right turns. Luckily we sat in a small bus so i dun feel that nauseous as compared to the return coach we took. I’ll explain more on that during the return trip.

At ard 10am, we reached Mersing and in another 30 mins, we reached Tanjung Gemok ferry terminal, where we will be chartered by ferry to Tioman island.

Nth much over here except for some souvenir shops and transport/accommodation services

Upon reaching, got to pay a marine conservation fee of RM5. And while waiting for the ferry to come, i browsed thru some of the shops and did a quick buy.

At 11am, the ferry came. Time to proceed to the jetty..

Looking forward to Tioman!Dun miss me! >.<The famous comedian, Zhou Xin Chi!

OMG!! The ferry ride took approximately 2 hrs..SUPER LONG!! At first i tot 45 mins only.. By then, i was kind of sea-sick so i tried to sleep and hoping to get there fast..

The waves! Aren’t they as white as snow? =P

After wad was felt like hours.. i woke up and finally saw some land.. and thats…. TIOMAN!!

  At last!! =)See the water? So clear and blue!! There’s some wordings on the rocks..click to enlargeArriving at Paya Village

Went to check in at the reception and got our room key, plus a welcome drink, which is lemon juice drink.

Next, off to find our superior chalet..

After putting down our stuffs, we then headed to Ramly’s burger for lunch.. yum yum!!

Dinner was at paya beach restaurant. A pity we missed the buffet.. so had to order ala-carte.. So we shared a pineapple rice and seafood platter with cocktail drinks.
