Port Dickson, Negeri Sembilan - Seremban.

A mere 1.5 hours drive from central KL is Port Dickson, famous for its sun and beach nearest to the hustle and bustle of city.

General:

1) If you are not a local, you probably need a rental car(with GPS / local SIM with data plan) to get you around as public transport is less convenient here.

2) Please do not put high expectation on the beach.

3) Grand Lexis and Lexis Hibiscus are the two luxury hotels which comes with private pool in every room. A great hotel for couple!

My room is exactly like these pictures above, facing the sea. You will probably feel as weird as I do when you first stepped in as the luxury bathroom comes first before your comfy bed. Overall, it is a great hotel with full amenities


You can also look out to a number of water chalets and a pathway leading you towards the middle of the sea. Definitely a better view of the ocean and a beautiful place to grab a picture when the sun is out!

Wan Loong Chinese Temple

This temple is famous for its lucky tortoise which apparently, predicts the 4D number. If you are a cultural person, head on there for a look. 

Port Dickson Public Beach

On your way to and back from the temple, you will spot this public beach with many mobile vendors nearby. It's best to go there during the sunset! While the beach is just ordinary, the beautiful sunset gives the sky pretty colours!

Seaview Restaurant

I will highly recommend this restaurant for dinner! While there are no outdoor seats, the window seats look right out into the ocean is a perfect place for dinner. It also has great Chinese delicacies at a reasonable price. Seafood lovers, you wouldn't want to miss their shells-off salted egg prawns!

Empayar Seremban Siew Pau

On your way back to KL, you will spot this super huge signboard writing Empayar Seremban Siew Pau by the highway. Well, yes, that is what Seremban is famous for. A local MUST-TRY! Besides selling freshly baked siew pau, you can also find Dim Sum for breakfast and Chinese Seafood Cuisine for lunch. (Photo credit: Google Photos)



There goes your weekend escapade!

There will never be too many road trips as there will never be enough!
