[浮罗交怡] 第二天: Breakfast Bar > Cenang Beach > Island Hoping > Coco Valley > The Zone Shopping Paradise > Bahagia Hotel > Wonderland Food Store > Perniagaan Haji Ismail > Langkawi Fair Shopping Mall & Billion

Had a nice sleep last night, everyone was energize and woke up early morning to continue our journey in the second day. As island hopping end 2:00pm, we checked out the resort early because the check out time was 12:00pm. We put all the things into our rent car before having our breakfast.

No people walked around at Pantai Cenang street even the clock showed 8 am. It seem like dead street.

Sun walked across the street to Breakfast Bar.

Breakfast Bar
This was the place we had our breakfast for the second day. It looked like simple. The price of here still acceptable. Since it has been a long time we haven't eaten "nasi lemak", it taste great^^
 Nasi lemak, fried eggs, half cooked eggs, toast and etc. The breakfast cost us RM44.

Different countries language for "welcome" which is next to entrance of Breakfast Bar.

After having our breakfast, we walked at Pantai Cenang while waiting for the van to picked us up to jetty for island hopping.
Babylon, one of the nightlife bar at Pantai Cenang but closed in the morning.

Island Hopping
We bought the island hopping package from de BARON holidays in Malibest Resort for RM30/pax which is RM5 more expensive than the normal because maximum 12 persons in one big boat. You also can get the price of RM25/pax at AB Cafe (Asthar Travel Agency) just infront of AB motel but normally around 20 ++ persons in one big boat. Departure time for island hopping is 9.00am and 2pm everday. Duration: 4 hours.

 Could you see the "Pregnant Lady" Shape?

Safety first! we wore life jacket since we are not good swimmers.

  Amazed by forest scene.

Small fish will eat your dead cells when you immersed your feet into the water.

 Waiting for our speed boat to pick us to the next station.

  On the way to eagle feeding view.

 The boat drive stopped here for around 10 minutes. Eagles swoop down with deadly precision to catch the meat. We didn't take much photos here as the "magnificent king of the skies"- eagle movement was quite difficult to be captured and the boat was pitching as well. 

 Beras Basah Island..how was the name come from?

 A lot of tourists and local people..

BEWARE! Food hunters again! High class monkey everywhere because they ate potato chips.

At about 1:30pm, we coming back from the island hopping. Overall, hmm...It was good to go for the first time but not for second time..We decided had our lunch at Fat Mum Seafood Restaurant but unfortunately it was only opened after 6:00 pm. So, to make it easier, we had our lunch just in front of Coco Valley. In our schedule, we planned to go Underwater World but due to nothing to see and entrance fee quite expensive (RM28/person with MyKad), we decided to put more time surveyed for cheaper chocolates and beers in Coco Valley and The Zone.
