On the way we noticed there were some Durian sellers. Jones, our guide, told us that those fruits are from the sellers backyard so it is acceptable if we got a bad durian and return it. The size of it is similar to a rockmellon, not too big. Though it has a distinctive and strong smell, it taste good and sweet. Well, probably I'm bias since I'm a fan! Each durian costs IDR 25,000.
A point of interest that we passed by on our to the beach was Batu Baginde. It is a giant beach located on top of a hill. It should take you 30 minutes to hike up there. We just took some picture from the road.
Our first beach stop was Teluk Gembira. It is actually a bay but since the wind was kind of strong, the wave was relatively big and strong.
Then finally we got to this beach named Pantai Penyabong or also known as Pantai Batu Lubang. It literary took my breath away. Very beautiful! Magnificent!
The water was calm and warm. Picturesque. The rocks were gigantic and spread across the shore. I think I'll let the picture to tell the rest.
Totally a must visit beach in Belitung!
