[Pangandaran Beach, Java - Indonesia] Up until a few days before I arrived I had never heard of Pangandaran. This fishing village on the south coast of West Java is a popular beach resort (if you can describe it as that) for domestic visitors, but like much of Indonesia beyond Bali, it is not on [...] Read more »
After a month of living in Ho Chi Minh City I decided to get out of town for the new years. Nha Trang is about eight hours away by train and ten hours by bus. While it isn’t the greatest beach in SE Asia I like that it’s a city with a beach attached. Travel [...] Read more »
Sihanoukville is a popular backpacker beach town in Cambodia. Just south of the busy main beaches there is a small headland that cuts the beach off, and behind that is Otres Beach. There is not much going here, which was just what I was looking for in a beach break. On my last night there [...] Read more »

The island doesn’t have the white sandy beaches other Philippine islands are famous for. Despite this, the coconut trees at sunset look stunning. Travel [...] Read more »
[7 Commandos Beach in the Bacuit Archipelago, Palawan - Philippines.] The Bacuit Archipelago was pretty much everything I had hoped the Philippines would be like – little islands with white sandy beaches and seas with ridiculous shades of blue. The Bacuit Archipelago is close to El Nido in Palawan. Travel Photos: Bacuit Archipelago Photo Gallery Read more »
Playa del Carmen has one of the best beaches I’ve ever had the privilege of walking on (and this is coming from an Australian). The soft white sand is composed of coral, which means that the sand remains cool even when it is baking hot, which was every day when I was there. Usually on [...] Read more »

[Lonely Beach at Koh Chang, Thailand.] Like Koh Samet, I heard mixed reviews about Koh Chang, particularly about the overdevelopment of the island. Travel is a relative experience though, and I found Chang not as developed as Samui and Phuket, thus not as developed as I thought it would be. Lonely Beach is the backpacker [...] Read more »
Hat Sai Kaew (Sai Kaew Beach). Koh Samet is close enough to Bangkok to make it an easy weekend trip, but it wasn’t as overrun as I thought it would be. Maybe it was because it was the first beach I had seen in a while but I liked it here. The sand is soft [...] Read more »
