Sempu Island

It was 5 pm when we got Sendang Biru. Actually, we almost can't entered Sempu Island because its too dangerous if we trought the woods in the night..hahaha..and all rangers has went home. Fortunately, we met Mr. Miskan -he is one of Sempu Island ranger- he agreed to accompany us, but he charged us more expensive than normal,150,000 IDR and for boat cost is100,000 IDR for commute.

People says that Sempu Island has similarity with Phi-Phi Island (Thailand), but I can't say that because I have not been there yet.

Guys..I proudly present...Segara Anakan of Sempu Island. From Sendang Biru we have to crossing the strait and trought the woods in the dark night which take 1 hour and 15 minute, but it was paid by this view. Many people says that the water in this lagoon was supplied by the wave which penetrate coral's hole. But the question is..If the hole is the only way the sea water come into the lagoon, how come this lagoon has followed the tidal currents? It should have another tunnel, I think.
 

It is a lazy time.. I spent a whole day swimming in this lagoon. If you like fishing, you can take your trawl or  rod because you gonna find a lot of coral fish here.

It was 2 pm, when the tidal wave started through the hole roughly. Gorgeous..

Because that day was christmast holyday, so we spent the night with almost 30 tend here..hahaha..it makes this lagoon full enought. Actually, Sempu Island has 25 site that has good view but the favourite one is this lagoon. Some ranger said that there are 8 trackers from Medan has already visited 5 place in a week. I can't imagine how many food supplies that they bring.

It was quite beautiful,wasn't it? First time,I want to swim until reach the cliff but after second thought, I cancelled those idea..hahahaha..

When morning has come, many monkeys come down from the forest and their only purpose is to get some food from traveller. O ya, for my suggestion..if you want to come to Sempu Island, you may come in July - September because the pathway is dry that make you easy trought the woods. And its better if you go here in the morning or in a daytime because you will have good vision for the track and it will cut travel time until 45 minute to trought the woods. 

Do not swim to the coral hole, it has dangerous current that gonna slap you to the cliff!!!! I have no the picture but actually there are women that yelling for help because she was trap in the current.

This time we face to face with the Pacific Ocean. Beautiful,,I wanted to swim there someday.
