I wish we have a good time and nice traveling again. Recently, all of us around the world have faced the COVID-19 problem. It has changed our lifestyle or business pattern quickly. However, safety is the most important for us, so we need to stay safe and stop any unnecessary activities including traveling on special vacation as well. Please stay safe and stay healthy. 🙂
Welcome to Bintan Ferry Terminal
We took a ferry from Singapore island to Bintan island, it took time approximately 50 minutes. Here, we arrived ferry terminal in Bintan island around afternoon. At the terminal, taxi is available for service us to our accommodation. But we had reserved for a resort in Bintan island which included car service from ferry terminal to our resort.
By the way, we just looked for the driver who would take us to the resort, it was not difficult to find him because he would show us the label with our name raising above the his head which we could easily to notice.
There were many visitors surrounding me, so I didn’t pay attention for exploring inside the terminal. I just though I would head to find driver as soon as I arrived.
Reception Contact
Finally, we arrived the accommodation that we had reserved before visiting Bintan. First of all, we took off the car and carried our belonging to the entrance of the reception office. We just headed to contact the receptionist- received the key. The staff would prepare a mini car which looked like golf cart carrying us and our belonging to our room.
I was so excited. It was my first time to have a seat on the golf cart.
Reception office was in the first floor. The office, characterized by white wall and lath. I felt it was built under comfortable and relaxing concept.
Path to the relaxing stay
You might know Bintan island has a lot of resorts or accommodations with nice view like beach. There are many room for guest. We explored along the path, it was pretty quiet. A few people had walked to the beach for seeing beautiful sunset. I remembered we couldn’t see the sunset clearly because It was cloudy and the tidal level was very low. We could see white sand and star fish. So, I didn’t capture the sunset’s picture. However, we could see the beautiful sunlight on the sky in the evening. The sky was decorating with golden mixing orange colour. It was really nice view.
What a beautiful!
I saw many kind of flowers planting surround the resort. But I didn’t know what kind of flower were planted. I have never seen it before. It was very beautiful. I love it. I have tried to search on google but I am not get information yet. I am thinking if I know its name in Indonesian, I might get some information about it.
The evening beach
The sky was starting dark, the birds went back their nest. I went to the beach at around 6.30 p.m. I could see the beach in the evening. Yes! I have never seen the beach at evening time in my life, this was my first time to see it. I felt I was enjoying with a new experience that I have never gotten it before, even though I didn’t see the seawater at the shore that I was standing. On the other hand, I felt more comfortable and relax for exploring and looking around because I didn’t need to concern about slippery.
The sun is gone
This was the sunset that I could capture the photo at the beach. I couldn’t see any ship or fisherman’s boat, probably they already went home. The Bintan beach at evening has fresh air and wind blow, I could feel my mind has been refreshing and more relax. I just stood for a while and take a deep breath.
This is a part of my new experience in Bintan Island, it is very nice place and easy to visit from Singapore port to Bintan port, it takes about 50 minutes. If you want to explore a new experience and find a new place to go throughout doing something new. Bintan island is an impressed place that I would like to recommend.
