Pengkalan Balak, Melaka... 2007

Having my relax time on beaches, especially on those 'famous public' beaches in west coast, is no fun anymore. Overcrowded, full and smelly toilets and parking are some of the issues.

So, one fine day, we decided to go to Pengkalan Balak, Melaka. It is situated at the south of Port Dickson. We spent 2 nights at one of chalet owned by Persatuan Nelayan Melaka. There was no problem on the chalet, in fact the rate was quite reasonable, RM 120 per night and some discount was given to government servant. Food was not a big deal. We had our meals either at in-house restaurant or at food stalls along the street.

Small pool for children

 The beach is about 10 meters from the room! fantastic. So, we had our BBQ on the beach. Even though the beach along the chalet is opened to public, it was hardly to see people there. We had our privacy at last.

Then we know why. Pengkalan Balak is near to some pig farms. The smell from the farms will travel through thick air and it was unpleasant to my nose.
