Travel: Malaysia - Desaru

[BigDevil]

Hi BlurBee,


Thanks for the photos! I’m planning a trip for the family during the National Day long weekend, but that oily beach looks to be such a turn off!

[BlurBee]

Hope u enjoy the trip.

BigDevil, remember to bring mosquitoes repellent if u going for the firefly cruise. A lot of mozzies.

not my blogs, just sharing.

For me, fireflies and seafood will be the highlight
(But I am only worried about navigating back to Singapore in the evenings, kampong routes..)
:shock:

eTour's iternery is very comprehensive, with fruit farms, crocodiles, ostriches etc etc

if u are going for the fireflies, u really need alot of insect repellents… my kids came back with a total of at least 16 bites!! and that is with insect repellent spray plus the stick on patch…


We were at Pulai Desaru beach for the youth day weekend… must say we enjoyed the fruit farm, and the Jade garden seafood. Fireflies cruise was memorable, but the life jackets were all faulty (cannot zip, wrong size) and the mozzies were really terrible… the beach at the hotel was ok… the pool was clean and spacious… O! the fruits at the farm were really delicious, esp the mangoes!! and not expensive too!!
