Such Stuff As Dreams Are Made On
Oui! Aquarelle.
Let’s talk about camera, the D-SLR type. Now and then, it does give rise to an illusory image in a shot-visual. When it does, it drives me into a psychotic tailspin.
Wait a minute! I’ve got to get a hold of myself. Ahhh….. such is life’s big mystery.

A Bay With A Naval Base & Water Villages & Container Port & Oil Terminal
Sebangar Bay, such a mish-mash of a jamboree. Anywhere else in the world has got such a mixed-up place?

Sweet Dreams Are Made of This
It would, indeed, have been a “Dream Paradise” had the beach been taken more care of and cow poops are nowhere to be in sight. This resort has fallen by the wayside. A dream that failed to come true.

The Untouchable Beach
Dalit Beach- aptly named as such.
Your attention is drawn to the fact: this is a private beach as access to it is through a private resort property- Rasa Ria Resort (Shagri-la Hotel Resort)

Kamikaze!
The Divine Wind
To say I was shell-shocked is to put it lightly. But stunned I truly was by the sight of the Kamikaze’s suicidal mission.
But it was fun and hilarious to watch the Kamikaze diving into the sea to catch its prey.

A Sunset Dip
Semporna- that Divers’ Meeting Place before heading towards the Divers’ Paradise. Surprisingly, Semporna has now become kind of like an English seaside resort. But…………. everything comes to a halt after 10 pm. So, to bed we went. An early night, the first time in a long while.
What is there in Semporna, you may [...]

Take A Walk On The Wild Side
A much neglected, under-rated & under-maintained park in Kota Kinabalu. But, in my humble opinion, it’s wild and yet still the best park in the whole of Sabah. It is, I think, the first public park in Kota Kinabalu and was built to commemorate the Royal Visit to Sabah by [...]

Taman Awam Teluk Likas
This is a popular picnic spot for the locals. Weekends will see the beach swamped with picnickers having a fun family day out. And of course a dip in the sea will go without saying. The beach is also one of the venues earmarked, unofficially, for the New Year celebration. On New [...]

Journey Further Up The Road On Pan Borneo Highway
As you travel along the Pan Borneo Highway- on the section of Jalan Putatan- past the Lok Kawi Army Camp, you will eventually arrive at the point where you will need to take a right turn towards the town of Kinarut in order to still stay on the panoramic view of [...]

The Seaside That Underwent A Face Change
Alright, alright, fair enough, I was completely wrong when years ago I said to someone the Lok Kawi Beach was such a let down with the sandy beach covered over with filthy and sooty black muds. And ramshackle wooden huts were lining the sea coast as far as the [...]

On your way to Tenom? Or coming to visit Kota Kinabalu from Brunei or Sarawak? Take a break and relax, and while your day away at this relatively unappreciated seaside. Stop by the Lok Kawi Beach (Pantai) and take a breather to soak in the wondrous seascape mystique interpersed with scenic isles just [...]
