Pasir Panjang Beach, Singkawang, MUST visit!!

Having a chance to visit West Borneo, we didn't miss the chance to enjoy Pantai Pasir Panjang  (Long Sand beach) in Singkawang.
Every people knew that we're going to Pontianak and Singkawang all said that we should not miss the beach....and its hill... :-)
We were thankful for our brother and sisters, Mr. Lucas, Mrs. Christin and Wisda who warmly hosted us and drove us to Rindu Alam hill and Pasir Panjang beach. We only had 2 hours in the morning to visit all the places as well as having breakfast. Applause for Singkawang's traffic and road.
And the beach......is....beautiful... They have more 'cotton' clouds than people there :-D
Warm day...
Blue sky...
Green blue sea...
Yellow sand...
Praise Abba!
Singkawang derives from its Chinese name,
山口洋, shan kou yang. Shan 山 is mountain, as we can see on our right hand. kou 口 is mouth, the shape of the area. Yang 洋 is the ocean.
amazing place, must go! (^_^)Y
How to get there?
Jakarta to Pontianak flight 1.5 h by Garuda. And then take taxi travel to Singkawang for 70.000Rp. Singkawang is 3 h driving diatance from Pontianak.
