My Most Unforgettable Holiday In 2015, I went to Derawan Island with my friends and that marks my most memorable holiday ever! In June, our school was having summer holiday, so we thought to ourselves that it shouldr't go to waste. We quickly browsed the internet to find a good holidaydestination and after an hour of heated debate, the four of us agreed to give Derawan Island a try. It was purely out of curiosity as none of us had been there before. We arrived at Soekarno- Hatta International .Airport at 05.30 a.m. as the flight was at 07.00 a.m.
First, we flew to Balikpapan and waited for about an hour to continuethe flight to Berau. As soon as we touched down in Berau, my friend called the tour agent that we had contacted earlier in Jakarta. They had got a car ready to take us to LabuanBatu. From Labuan Batu, we took a speedboat for about an hour to Derawan Island. It was such a long trip to Derawan but it all paid off as soon as we saw how beautiful theisland was. My friends and I were quickly ushered to our rooms in the resort. It was fantastic! The rooms were in a cottage that was situated right above the sea. So we only had tostep out the terrace to find ourselves out in the open sea! After unpacking our luggages and washing up, we went to the dining hall to grab our dinner. The dinner was onlysimple seafood dishes. The surrounding totally enhanced the dining experience, making the food taste much better. The following day, we took a speedboat tour, hopping from one island to another Our first trip stop was Kakaban Island where we hiked to reach the lake and swamamong stingless jellyfish. The last time I heard, there were only three places in the world that have stingless jellyfish, two of them in Indonesial Isn't that great? The next stopwas the Sangalaki Island where we got to visit sea turtle conservation and took lots of pictures with sea turtle babies. They were so cute! Our last stop was the Maratua Island where we were able to feed fish and see a three-legged sea turtle. The three- legged sea-turtle wasn't born that way. We were told that it was swimming in the open sea when it was still a baby then its leg got caught in plastic trash and couldn't grow even when the sea-turtle reached adulthood. One of theisland's guards saw the sea-turtle and saved it. He also untangled the plastic trash that bound the sea-turtle's leg but it was too late. Since then, the sea-turtle is kept in a specialspace next to the resort in Maratua Island and the guards take turns feeding it to ensure its survival. This is why we should never litter and endanger other creatures! AfterMaratua Island, we headed back to Derawan Island to catch a late dinner and turned in.
The following morning, we wake up early and ate our breakfast in the dining room. Then, the driver drove us back to the airport so we could catch a fight back toJakarta. We arrived at Jakarta, exhausted but terribly happy! It was the most unforgettable trip I have ever experienced so far!
