Snorkelling time!
Snorkeling time! |
Or in our case, to the island.
The first day of Lebaran is always filled with family gatherings as well as visiting the graves of deceased family.
Not only one or two, but we might visit 4 - 5 houses as well as graves. It was fun but at the same time tiring. But again, Lebaran Day is only once a year and it worth a celebration!
Not to mention the food!
Oh my, glorious food so rich and delicious and sometimes it's only available in this super special occasion!
Cheers from our family.. |
And now ... back to snorkelling.
As you can see in my previous posts, whenever my family and I go back to Lampung, we always manage to go hopping the islands or snorkelling.
I have to say it becomes sort of a habit that we all love so much.
Back to Tegal Mas Island... |
The last 2 visits we went to Spot Sari near Sari Ringgung beach as well as Tegal Mas. I shared that in WW: Tegal Mas Island Lampung - continued and WW: Tegal Mas Island Lampung in a glimpse.
We went early from home, around 8.30 in the morning.
Even that early morning, we were already stuck in the traffic LOL.
It was a long queue on the main road heading to the beach as people are heading to the beaches dotting along Lampung Bay. It was a bit frustrating in the beginning but we just enjoyed the trip with movies and books.

Once we arrived in Sari Ringgung beach, we directly went to our rented boat as we had booked for it. Good thing we have our usual boat renter, Romi, standing by at this crowded beach. We brought all our stuff, including food, drinks, and snorkelling gear, to the boat and off we went to the island.
It took us 20 minutes to cross the bay and reach Tegal Mas Island.
It was super packed with visitors indeed!
Well, it was Lebaran Day, so it's as expected. Besides, Tegal Mas has decent accommodations so we have people who have stayed in. We saw boats coming and going off the island as well, bringing more visitors.
When we arrived, we directly found the spot where we put our stuff and getting ready to swim. My kids were super ready and they plunged themselves on the ocean. For sure they enjoyed the sun, the weather, the ocean.
Here are some photos from our last adventure.
Nemo and watch underwater.. |
