Karya 'Uluwatu' di Pulau Weh

“Stop worrying about the potholes in the road and celebrate the journey.”

– Fitzhugh Mullan – 

Pemandangan lepas Pantai

Bangsa yang besar adalah bangsa yang mengetahui sejarah negaranya. Indonesia, tepatnya pulau Weh memiliki sebuah peninggalan sejarah yang menjadi saksi bisu hingga saat ini.  Tahukan Anda peristiwa sejarah tersebut di pulau kecil di ujung barat NKRI ini ?.  Bahkan dahulunya, pulau kecil ini dinilai lebih strategis jika dibandingkan dengan Temasek (baca: Singapura). Tidak percaya?. 

Sumur di Pantai, ya Pantai Sumur Tiga

“Remember that happiness is a way of travel – not a destination.”

Pantai Sumur Tiga

I Love the way while I was travelling. Love that part. Bagian tersebut ketika saya mengunjungi pantai Sumur Tiga di pulau Weh. "Ingat ya, pulau Weh, bukan pulau Sabang...!!!". 

Ketika Anda sudah berada di pulau Weh, pastikan Anda memiliki waktu untuk menikmati salah satu pantai cantik di kota Sabang. Inilah pantai Sumur Tiga. Lokasinya tidak jauh (kali ini beneran) dan tidak seperti pengalaman saya sebelumnya jika menanyakan suatu tempat ke orang-orang lokal. Anda cukup menempuh perjalanan kurang lebih 15 menit dari kota Sabang, tepatnya di kecamatan Ie Meule, Sukajaya, Sabang, Pulau Weh, Provinsi Aceh. Pantai ini akan membuat decak kagum bagi setiap orang orang yang menyaksikannya secara langsung *lebay dikit..*

Tapi mengapa pantai ini bisa membuat decak kagum yah..?. 

Ketenangan itu bernama Iboih

“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page” 

― Augustine of Hippo ― 

Berawal dari rasa penasaran dengan pulau kecil di ujung barat Indonesia dan menjadi ikon dalam lagu nasional yang berkumandang setiap hari besar nasional, Dari Sabang sampai ke Merauke, akhirnya aku menginjakan kaki juga. Tidak hanya ingin sekedar membaca dan menyanyikannya, Aku ingin mewujudkan jika bisa menyaksikan keindahan pulau kecil ini. Pulau Weh. 

Ujung Genteng, The Untouchtable Place

Once you had gone, you'll never back. That's your journey

- Mungkas -

One decent beach you visit eventhough this beach isnot in eastern coast of Indonesia, Ujung Genteng. Then, you will be get a wonderfull view from it. The beaches are still "virgin" because of its location away from the capital. This is what makes ,Ujung Genteng, is the main attraction for those who love travel and adventure.

Since Ujung Genteng is far from city, I suggest to use a personal vehicle for traveling. This is because a lot of spots beaches and waterfalls that were located pretty far apart. In addition, public transport facilities are also lacking.

Pleasure of Banten, Sawarna

“Our happiest moments as tourists always seem to come when we stumble upon one thing while in pursuit of something else.” 

— Lawrence Block — 

If you only know Anyer, Ujung Kulon, and Krakatau as tourism destination in Banten, nowadays there is nothing wrong if you decide to go to a new hiding place and not well known by the tourist eventhough Indonesian. But, for backpack travellers, this is the one of their destination. Sawarna. Sawarna itself is a village located in the district Bayah, Banten and close to Pelabuhanratu, Sukabumi, West Java. 

Tanjung Kelayar

Escaping at Jakarta ... Ancol

“We must leave this terrifying place to-morrow and go searching for sunshine” 

― F. Scott Fitzgerald ―

Sunset at Ancol Bay

You will never know if you have not tried it. When you've tried and know the good and the bad then you can decide whether to continue or leave it. You will continue to run and look for something new again. Something new vision penetrates the horizon.

That's the meaning of traveling.  

Sparkling in Africa van Java ... Bama Beach

“A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step” 

– Lao Tzu – 

A Road to Bama Beach

You will never get bored when visiting a new place and deserves to be explored more. Your curiosity will be satisfied if you are able to see the beauty of it's own with your own eyes not only of other people's stories. A trip itself will starts from a single step and an intention to explore the huge horizon.
