Condo Vacation Rental...Batu Ferringhi / Penang
Description
Batu Feringgi is no surf beach. There are no rollers fresh from the Indian Ocean, just a slow easy swell that slides up onto the clean yellow-brown sand, lets you know that it?s around and then sighs back. It is easy to imagine the first European sailors drifting ashore on the gentle swells to find fresh water and gazing up at the forested slopes that rise steeply behind the foreshore. You can walk along the soft sand, wade in shallow water, spend an hour sitting in the shade of tall casuarina trees watching the fisherman mending nets or rest against the giant basalt rocks that guard each end of the beach. Enjoy the excitement of the para-sailers or the hesitant first-timers on hired jet-skis. When it all becomes too frenetic retreat to the beach-side bar and sip on an ice cold Tiger beer.No hawkers, no sarung sellers, no kids hawking watches, jewellery, or introductions to their sister, or their brother who sold funny cigarettes. Above all there was, never once, that intrusive, insidious cry, ?Hello, you want massage??
