Tanjung Lesung

We took a trip to the coast for 4 days when our boat trip to Krakatao (yes, the volcano) got cancelled due to bad weather. We had planned the boat trip with our friends the Prendergast's and we were all so disappointed that we came up with this plan very last minute. A teacher friend told us about it, and we booked it on the spot and left the very next morning. It was EXCELLENT!! The beaches around the island of Java are not wonderful but the water is fairly warm and there are shells everywhere which makes loads of fun for our little girls. It was a lovely get-away from the bussle of the city.

Behind Emma and Marion you can see a bit of the villa we stayed in, it had a pool and deck in the back then a huge yard space right down to our own private beach.
