Harapan Island

Harapan Island is one of the island in Thousand Islands, Jakarta. So it's totally a short trip compared to previous one. It's only 2 days 1 night trip. This time, Deka's the one who arranged the trip. And Dhea's the PIC for me. Since I not really closed to Deka and Dhea's closer, the other reason I was lazy to contact him. Hahaha

Actually I was joined this trip because Adryan asked me to accompany him since he didnt really know any other person in this trip and he was missed the sea so much *which I also did. It cost IDR 350k all in with meeting point at Kota station in Saturday morning. After waiting for Deka ( yes, he's late! #toyor), we're going to Muara Angke to take the boat by rent an angkot.

I never went to Muara Angke previously and didnt know how big the boat was. So it's actually bigger than previous boats, but it made me felt sea-sick. Even both Deka and Dhea got the "jackpot" a.k.a vomitted. Hahaha

Eventhough Deka and his companion were late, fortunately we're still on schedule (and if it's not, I'm planning to kick his ass out from the boat. lol #halfjoke). And, welcome to Harapan Island.

I must admitted the homestay was really nice. It's two floor house with 2 bathroom in the 1st floor, eventhough there's only 1 room in the 1st floor, so I joined the room with Dhea and her friends. After Friday praying and lunch, we're going to our snorkeling time.

Anyway, the photos after these was taken from either Adryan's, Dhea's and Deka's photos. Since after the first snorkeling spot, my phone was died because of sea water. #cries

I was amazed that there's a spot in the middle of the sea where it's shallow.

Catching the sunset at Perak Island.

After catching the sunset, we're heading back to Harapan and have a bbq at night.

In the next morning, because it's gloomy morning so we're not lucky to get the sunrise, but at least it's sunny afterwards. Actually the schedule was just island hopping but both me and Adryan just cant resist the water. Hahaha

Anyway, Harapan's islands underwater was quite pretty, eventhough it's still around Jakarta. Here're the photos (Adryan's courtesy though)

After lunch, we're heading back to Jakarta. And we chose to stay outside rather than inside the boat. But seems like it's not a good choice since it's damn hot. =____="
But anyway, it's quite a good short trip. Just remember that you have to be careful with sea urchins when you're going to thousands islands.lol
