I think any harbour or anywhere that has lots of sea traffic,the beach wont be this clean,hehehe....

I have been looking into the place. Due to its short distance,i think there will be no ferry travelling from the Telaga Punggur Harbour to the island but more of just a small boat that look something like...

They called the small boat, the pompong,hehehe...

This kind of arrangement can be made tho,with the Boat driver...hehehe...i guess they serve like those road travelling taxis,except that they are at sea.

There's also a grounded abandon boat on the island too,which almost become this island's trademark.

I have been reading about a nearby island that are supposingly near to Pulau Tunjuk Batam,hehehe...what caught my interest this time round is this photo below :

Its in an island called Pulau Mencaras Batam (its actually a tourist spot at around Barelang Bridge 2),hehehe....yes,there are dolphins in Batam too.

Again, to get to this island,have to use a harbour near the Telaga Punggur village.

Still reading....still reading...

Keeping record in the forum on Pulau Mencaras and Pulau Tunjuk...hmm...notice there's a day tour to this island tho,interesting but its at 750k rupiah per pax. I shant name the tour agent name and its contact info here tho. i just want to see if i can travel there at a lower rate,hehehe...yes,on my own.

...not that i am interested in Batam beaches,but its one of the cleanest beaches i have seen in Batam,and its a small boat ride away (i think will cost about 100k rupiah per pax or between 600k to 800k rupiah to rent the whole boat) from Telaga Punggur Harbour at Batam.

Nobody would believe this little clean island is part of Batam,hehehe...its called Pulau Tunjuk.

This Pulau Tunjuk reminds me of Pawai and Sudong (2 small Singapore island),whereby one can almost walk over to the other side of the island during a very low tide. Meaning one can literally walk from sudong to pawai when the tide is at very low level,hehehe...

Just sharing.

Bro Nono, Do you know how long is the journey from Nogaya area until reach the beach? Thanks bro nice beach man

I am not too sure,bro. But according to what i have read on the way to a resort by the name Blue Mountain Kelong,plus minus it will take about 1.5 hours inclusive of a boat ride. More time might be needed if its a last min arrangement as when one will need to find time to look for a way there (which is what i am doing now,hehehe...).

...i dont even wish to talk about this Blue Mountain Kelong Resort,hehehe...1 simple reason,cost to stay for one night is about S$400. I mention this resort now becos i might have a follow up of yet another higher end resort place (but not as high as the Blue Mountain Kelong resort) which is after bridge 3.

Batam can easily find girls...good girls or those rare type might not be easy but still,it can be available with some will and luck. But a good ,yet cheap getaway trip arrangement that covers most of what i hope to see (and to experience) that could rarely be seen in Singapore? Not so easy...hehehe...

Just sharing.

Hi all bros, samsters,

I just got a new job that requires traveling to batam for work. I started coming here for short trips 2-3 days once every 1-2 week. but due to project, I am now based here for about 20 days.

I have been doing a lot of reading, but unfortunately I didn't manage to find most fun that bros are talking about. I have not ventured into farms yet cause normally day time I work. I went to Caraways KTV, but only 2-3 girls catch my eyes, but was quoted 2.1M. But this weekend I'm staying over in Batam, and I could really use some guide/company.

Any bros in batam and do not mind to show the newbie a few places? I will buy your a beer in returned. Pls pm me your contact. (not sure If I'm allowed to post my contact here?) . I try anyway... my we.ch@t is alex6513...

thanks ya....

1st, Bro BFOMF5 goes to a certain nice place in Batam,followed by bro Ndnd who also follows up close,thereafter i got interested and try to find out and learn more about the area they went to,hehehe....amazing Batam. (not the usual kind of resort i see in Batam)

_________________________________

Hehehe....SBS Resort. I dont think they have anything to do with Singapore Bus service tho.

This resort cost 1.5 juta per night...but can only book directly from their website (i am sourcing for a better price tho,since Harris Resort Barelang only cost about half the price). This is the SBS resort...

...and its location. Near to those 2 islands i was eyeing on,hehehe...

The view during sunset time.
