hi, i'll be staying at tiara bay resort (TBR).. this 30th sept.. so my plan is:
1. go PD from seri petaling @ 7.00am
2. once reach there, straight head for swimming pool (allowed?)
3. play until afternoon 2pm like that and check in hotel
4. about evening 4pm go seaside for sightseeing
5. until sun set, go back TBR and makan drool.gif

is there any flaw in my planning? since im staying in TBR, any nearby nice beaches that i can easily access to?
from what i see in GPS map, eagle ranch is the nearest.. i've also been told that the beaches in telok kemang and batu 8 is nicer?

Why do u want to play in the pool when u are near the beach??  rclxub.gif  rclxub.gif  rclxub.gif
But i doubt the security will chase u away anyway...

U should go to the blue lagoon there hike to the lighthouse and watch some scenery...

Sure, but I myself will recommend blue lagoon. Its along the way to the light house.
There are 2 toll involve PLUS rm7.20 then the seremban to PD toll rm3.20.
Not sure the lighthouse name and yes you can't enter but you can go round it which you can view the nice scenery, high clift with sea below.

blue lagoon is the resort name or beach name?

There are alternative way going to PD bypassing the NSE tolls but abit slower-lah...use the LDP-Putrajaya Highway>F1 circuit>Sepang>Lukut>PD

Yes heard about the TBR "water theme park"...Ok-lah stay & got free Sunway Lagoon experience  biggrin.gif ..Probably 1 day I will booked there too..Do share your experience at the resort... rclxms.gif

BTW, there is another long lost attraction at Pasir Panjang - i.e The Batu Bersurat....somewhere here: N2 26.307 E101 58.018 . I hv been to this real Batu Bersurat long time ago when there is no bridge linking Sg Linggi to Melaka...but after the completion of the bridge, no one using the road & the Batu Bersurat also forgotten..so sad.. sad.gif

Teluk Kemang is quite polluted already...
Go straight ahead more until u see "blue lagoon" or "army base" signboard turn right and go straight u will reach blue lagoon.
Its more cleaner there, but still its not far from teluk kemang actually..

The light house is just beside blue lagoon..there's a hotel nearby the trail entrance...Expect to walk on foot for about 20minutes up the hill.

Yes Blue Lagoon is right choice...But the beach abit rocky if I'm not mistaken...A real white soft sandy beach will be the beach located near Bayu Beach resort...I think local called this area "Pai Sar Tang" long time ago...not sure... hmm.gif

The pasir Panjang area is not a beach..The end of Pasir Panajang if I'm not mistaken is a camp (In MSM it's Akademi belia?) Those beach further than Blue Lagoon are very rocky & painful without shoe.. sad.gif ...The Batu Bersurat is located inland on the way to Pedas/ Ramuan China...If u are really those like history and u hv read about the Batu Bersurat, than it will interest you.. biggrin.gif ..BTW I think the location is even further than what I given earlier..it's somewhere further North at N2 26.883 E102 00.956....It's in Google Earth indicated as Megalith Pengkalan Kempas

Added on October 1, 2008, 7:48 amAny update? Well..I'll be going bck to Melaka (My Hometown soon) and this time probably detour to the Batu Bersurat & also Linggi fort....will share wth u my road trip soon...

cheersĀ  rclxms.gif

came back today but somehow, blue lagoon was dissapointing.. look at the map that i attached, we went to the "A" side because there wrote "pantai xxx" but all i saw was dirty ocean, rocky beach and people catching fish although it already wrote clearly no fishing activities allowed lol..
or did i eventually went to wrong place? but it did wrote tanjung biru on the signboard..
in the end, we went to pantai saujana, near avillion resort which was okay with the sandy beach but dirty water lo whistling.gif
then next day, i came across teluk kemang with alot of people drool.gif went there, notice the water was cleaner although the sand was not soft.. got various activities like bananaboat, jetski, shops, etc..
talking about hotel, the room rate was cheap and can accomodate 7 person easily.. they dont really care how many person will be in one room (officially, not legally tongue.gif ).. room was clean and way larger than expected (Family Junior).. water park more suitable for children than adults though doh.gif
breakfast in TBR was another dissapoinment with oily food, tasteless drink and so on. In fact, swarms of flies flying around the whole pd everywhere we went doh.gif
all in all, it was a pleasant and relaxing but tiring experience cool.gif
