Lokasi: Cherating, Pahang
Member: Senn, Fahmi and Faridz
Trip aku kali dah dirancang lama oleh kitorg bertiga since ketiga2 free this weeknd (not that often 3 of us free on weeknd)..but kitorg pilih Cherating sbg destinasi pilihan 6 hours before start this trip, after our tennis match..haha..plan asal nk g Johor Premium Outlet (JPO) @ Johor then terus ke Singapore but we need to change that plan..member kat Johor xde plak this weeknd..
Day 1 (Saturday, 11 February 2012)
Perjalanan kitorg bermula seawal jam 830am..kitorg kumpul kat rumah Faridz & naik kreta Faridz..but before that kitorg breakfast dulu @ Gombak mkn nasi dagang..hehe..Dlm pkl 10am baru kitorg start gerak ke Cherating melalui Lebuhraya Karak and smp around 1pm di Cherating..The 1st thing to do of coz carik chalet sekitar Cherating..mula2 aku tanya chalet yg aku duduk dulu @ Riverside 3 Point Beach Motel..harga this week RM120..then kitorg check plak chalet sebelah Ranting Resort which is better but mhl skit, RM180..since bahagi 3 so kitorg ambik je Ranting Resort..So aktiviti pertama jalan2 tgk pantai jap..kurang ombak je this time..tp mmg sesuai utk mandi..tp sbb panas terik so malas nk mandi dulu..hehe..
Next aktiviti ialah lunch..Faridz ckp ada satu kedai seafood sedap kat Kemaman..btw, Kemaman ni sebelah Cherating je..xjauh pun..Nasib baik kitorg jumpa Restoran Tong Juan yg Faridz ckp famous with its stuffed crab..seriously aku xpernah mkn..kitorg order gak seafood lain, sayur, ayam, nasi & air kelapa..the price not that expensive, 3 org mkn dlm RM85..not bad jugak..lepas lunch kitorg terus ke Santuari Penyu Cherating..nk tgk penyu and nk tanya whether still ada x penyu bertelur..hehe..unfortunately musim penyu bertelur dah lepas (May until August). Tp kitorg sempat gak tgk anak2 penyu kat sini..Sblh Santuari Penyu Cherating ni ialah Club Med Cherating, one of the most popular destination/resort..
Around 5pm barulah kitorg get ready utk mandi di pantai..one of the main purpose ke Cherating adalah nk belajar surfing gak sbnrnya..masa kat pantai ramai gile org tgh surfing & we all tertanya where to get that surfing board..mcm best je diorg surfing..lepas mandi then kitorg jln2 sekitar kedai & chalet nk tgk mana nk sewa..so jumpalah di Satu Suku Surfing..malangnya owner pergi surfing plak..then terpaksa g pantai lagi carik owner tu, nasib baik jumpa..so tanyalah details...so if nk belajar surfing rate for 1 person ialah RM120 (1 3/4 jam class + half day renting fee for surfing board)..if 2 or 3 org price murah skit..if nk rent board tu je dlm RM40/halfday and RM70 for full day..but class start tomorrow lah 930am..

Day 2 (Sunday, 12 February 2012)
Hari ni kenalah bangun awal skit sbb nk kena pergi kelas surfing..yg paling excited of coz Faridz sbb dia yg beriya2 nk belajar..after short briefing @ Satu Suku Surf, new surfers akan ke pantai beramai2 utk 1 3/4 jam praktis plak..Honestly I'm telling you surfing ni tak semudah yg disangka..nmpk senang but utk stabilkan diri atas board then berdiri lagi was really difficult..I mean really difficult..espcially for 1st timer like us..then nk pilih ombak yg sesuai pun satu hal gak..tak semua ombak sesuai..that one I think experience yg penting...utk kitorg belasah je semua ombak..hahaha..after almost 2 hours class, then new surfers boleh buat aktiviti bebas smp penat..haha..hasilnya tgklah gmbr kat bawah ni..
Surfing time at Cherating..
Setelah puas berjemur di panas terik dan menjadi sgt tanned, kitorg pun get ready nk checkout..Actually dah minta kat org chalet utk checkout around 2pm sbb ada surfing lesson in the morning..nasib baik diorg ok je..Around 2pm br lah kitorg checkout and start mencari makanan plak..so our target this time of coz makanan tempatan Trengganu (even thought we Cherating @ Pahang..haha..)..Kitorg singgah di Keropok Lekor Che Wan utk beli satar, keropok lekor, pais ikan and otak-otak..this area xjauh dr Teluk Mok Nik (or known as Monica Bay)..Lepas abis melantak and tapau utk bw blk KL, then kitorg singgah mkn kat Warung D'mic xjauh dr Cherating menghala ke Kuantan (warung sebelah kanan jalan selepas jambatan)..tempat ni famous dgn Nasi Kukus Ayam Goreng Berempah..seriusly lepas mkn rasa kenyang nk mampus..haha..lepas mkn barulah balik KL..around 7pm baru kitorg sampai KL..aku ingat sampai situ je xpdc kitorg tp kitorg singgah plak Bukit Jelutong utk makan Sarawak cuisine at my fren's stall @ The Food Station, D'Bayu Commercial Centre, Bukit Jelutong..yummmy!!
