Serawak - The tail of the cat...

"The Question is not what you look at, but what you see!"

(Serawak: 8 - 11 Sept 2007)

(A formation of black rocks)

On Sunday we decided to drive to the tail of the cat and planned to go to Tanjung Datu but there is no through road and the only way to get there is to rent a boat!.

(Taking in the cool breeze of the beach)

We decided to explore other remote parts of Sarawak and our journey passed through Lundu and Sematan. We stopped at a few beautiful beaches along the route.

(A lone fishing boat)

There are beautiful rock formation, granite boulders lying on the beach and in the water, making a picturesque scenery. The combination of reflection, rock and trees create a beautiful sight. A lone boat is serene under the cloudy sky..

(Gunung Gading National Park)

On the way back to Kuching, we stopped at Gunung Gading national Park, located in the Lundu District. The Park consists of rugged mountain peaks which provides a scenic backdrop to the nearby Pandan and Siar beaches.
.
The waterfalls in the upper part of Sungai Lundu have become a popular recreational destination for both local and foreign visitors. Gunung Gading is the home to numerous rare plants including the world's largest flower, the Rafflesia.

  7. I saw your photos and read your article about Sarawak in your website. I am planning to go Sarawak in November for four nights. I hope you can give me some advise.

    I understand you drove. How to rent a car and how much it cost? Do you have the contact? Is Damai Beach very beautiful and nice place to stay? I do plan to go to few places like Sematan, Bako and Semenggoh.

    My e-mail add chowyy@lion.com.my. Hope to hear from you soon.
