A month after the hike up to Penang Hill, his youngest brother follows me trekking to Monkey Beach. It is also my sister first time joining the trekking. Before enter into the National Park, registration with the authority, as well as toilet break is a must! Depart at 9am, we arrived at the first beach at USM CEMACS 30 mins later. After a short break of chasing after the tiny white crabs at the soft sand beach, we further trek to Monkey beach and reach by 10.30am - takes about 1.5 hours with normal pace. Normally we (the usual trekking members) will further up to Lighthouse then walk back for the return trip. Since we have first timers here, our destination is Monkey beach only. Also, in order to let them experience the boat ride, we hire the boat to return to park entrance so they could have a view of open sea at Straits of Malacca.
