Pantai Bisikan bayu
Thursday, May 10, 2007
Pantai Bisikan Bayu - also known as Pantai Dalam Rhu - is just a scenic 50km drive south of Kota Bharu, Kelantan's capital. Around the village of Semerak, gentle breezes rustle the casuarina trees lining the beach producing a hushed sound that, locals say, sounds like a soothing whisper.
Surfing is good at certain times of the year, and wind surfers will find great conditions here during the North-East Monsoon from November to April. But nothing beats resting in the shade of the tall casuarina trees, staring out to sea, listening to the whispering wind and sipping on a cool coconut. Perfect R & R…
The beach is fabulous and popular with locals and visitors alike all year long, but you may want to be more careful during the monsoon season as the currents and waves can be strong. You might wonder how to get there?Follow the interstate highway south of Kota Bahru for 50km until you reach the charming town of Pasir Putih, which means 'White Sand'. The beach lies just past this town.
