šPantai Puteri Santubong Having a picnic with Michelle at this beautiful spot, just after she finished her night shift. šThe sunset made the scenery most magical; it was perfect for golden hour photography. With mangrove forests, wetlands and the towering Gunung Santubong as our backdrop, we walked approximately 500 metres out on the seas since the tide was low. Just beautiful.

Ā Ā Ā Read moreWent there for wedding photo shoot. Let me share the pros and cons.

Not sure who manages the beach site but if the charges from paid zone covers picnic site & toilet etc, arenāt they suppose to clean the beach too? If not then who? I donāt know whoās responsible of the site but I think this is the last time i will ever go to...
