Description
This is a campground for campervans, Motor homes, campers, stargazers, backpackers & travelers, situated along the South China Sea in the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia.
On none busy days esp weekdays, there is so much to explore such as the numerous waterfalls in the rainforest, nearby islands to dive or get your dive certification as it's cheaper in Malaysia than in Thailand or Indonesia. However, you will need to plan for transportation.
As this location is away from the township, the night skies make it perfect for stargazing. It's also a haven for anglers as there are all sorts of seasonal tropical marine life.
We have a stove with essential amenities to cook your meals after a weekly run for groceries.
During your stay, Workawayers will be required to:
1. Maintain the cleanliness of the campground & grass to be cut with machine provided.
2. To maintain the cleanliness of amenities like the kitchenette, toilets, showers, pools & the reception area.
3. To liaise with the owner on bookings & walk-in campers.
4. Muralists: am looking forward to adding more designs on the wall & to also touch up existing art work on the wall.
I will also need help with restoring some parts of the campsite, toilets, some fixing & upgrading.
i have only 1 wooden beach front chalet for couples or solo traveller and this chalet is also booked from March till April. I do have tents instead for additional workawayers.
As a fellow traveler, I look forward to meeting you & listening to your stories, and getting to know more about your country.
