On to the jetty towards mainland

Continuing from Early morning views at the main beach of Pulau Besar.



After having breakfast at a stall I walked towards the jetty of Pulau Besar.



It is the main entry point to get to the island and off.




Views from the jetty...



















Early morning views at the main beach of Pulau Besar

Continuing from The 'Marina' around sunset.



Early Wednesday morning 24th May 2023. After spending the night at the only mosque in Pulau Besar I looked at the main beach in front facing the Straits of Melaka.









The time was around 7.02 am.







The sun was just about to rise...


The 'Marina' around sunset

Continuing from Recent views from Pulau Besar golf club tower.



From the tower I descended to a place known by the locals as the "Marina".







It is a resort complex made to look like some old Italian town.










But for some unclear reasons, some say mystical in nature, the resort was never opened after completion.







For the record these pictures where taken around sunset.




Recent views from Pulau Besar golf club tower

Continuing from On to Batu Belah.



For Batu Belah I walked to the top of a lower hill where lies the Pulau Besar golf club and its tower.




A look behind before climbing up the tower. That's the hill where lies the Batu Belah.



Views from the tower...



















On to Batu Belah

Continuing from Pulau Besar after so many years.



As it is I landed in Pulau Besar at around 5.25 pm.







At 6.20 I decided to walk to the highest hill in the island.










The destination is an area called Batu Belah, the split stone.







That is the Batu Belah.







Looking for up the split stone...





Pulau Besar after so many years

Continuing from Anjung Batu jetty after some years.



From Anjung Batu I got a boat to the island called Pulau Besar.
















My records show the last time I was here was with the family in September 2018.









Compare the scenery to what is shown in the almost 5 years old article Enjoying the beach at Pulau Besar, Melaka.
