Monkey Beach Penang 13/01/2011

Went for a hike to Monkey Beach on that Thursday together with Raymond, Chun Chuen, Ken Jeen and Wilson. We started hiking on 8:30 in the morning, we missed the sunrise. It took us about 2 hours of hike to reach Monkey Beach. The track was different than the track linked towards Pantai Kerachut at which, the track linked towards Monkey Beach is more challenging.
It was a fun and adventurous hike especially with high school buddies.

A best relaxation place to spend with when you are feeling stress out in the city or it might be the a place where couples can choose to hang out to the beaches.

Frankly, I do not know what are they but at the first thought, they are abandoned structures of fishermen's housings.

In Monkey Beach, you are able to enjoy riding water jet ski, bbq, and some other various kinds of activities on the beach.

Water Taxis are available for 50RM for a single ride back to where we started from.

The joy and the adventurous hike made our morning into an extraordinary morning. Appreciate that we had the opportunity to meet up with high school buddies and went for hiking together after graduated from high school. Will be looking forward to different tracks of hikings in the national park again.
