Kapas Island
  Daddy, help me
  A traffic jam
  You look so self conscious
  These are all the people going back again
  Welcome to Kapas
  ladies and gentlemen
  I think it's that way about 6 min walk
  There's something nice here as well
  There's a couple of resorts here
  OH
  and ... and
  some
  ass
  There's a couple of resorts
  ... and some bum
  On Google Maps it shows
  it's that way
  but we have noticed that some of
  the places on google maps
  are way out. For instance
  Butterfly resort we almost got
  off on the wrong side of
  the island because of Google Maps
  so always
  make sure
  you know where you're going and you tell them
  the exact name
  This is the other
  side of Kapas
  There's actually a jetty here
  or pier
  Beautiful beaches
  Crystal clear water
  Today's probably not a day
  to show crystal clear water
  It's a bit clouded
  Overcast
  but
  we are here for two days so
  maybe tomorrow or later this afternoon
  we'll get a better
  shot of the beach
  This is Koko restaurant
  Apparently the food is divine
  but you have to bring food with
  while you wait for your food
  This is Koko bar
  Beach Bar, Koko beach bar
  RM10 for Carlsberg
  The only beer they have
  It is so beautiful here and the sunset is just amazing
  I think it is
  Just look at that
  Then you have these two
  They're gonna break this hangmat
  No, Megan, enough
  No, no thanks
  I'm
  on Kapas island
  and I'm navigating
  from where we stay in the east...western side
  to the eastern side
  Actually wanna see if I can get some nice
  sunrise photos
  It's still early but
  tracking through this jungle
  seems to be more
  difficult than I thought
  so it's about a kilometre's walk
  and
  if it was just a simple path
  I should've been there by now
  but
  it's not that simple
  It is tricky, you
  get
  or you loose the path every now and again
  They do have these ropes
  but at places like these
  they don't have the ropes anymore and
  sometimes the ropes
  lead to a dead end and you have to
  go back and find the right
  path
  but I'm doing
  my best to see if I can get the sunrise
  if there is a sunrise
  at all
  in this place of the world
  in this time of the year. You never know
  As you're starting to hear
  the ocean and you think you're there
  you're presented by this
  and I guess you have to
  go down there. There's some
  There you go, there's some steps there
  and then you have to navigate
  through this small little river
  I've been walking next to it
  all the way from the top
  and on the other side
  But this side it's a river
  On the other side at least it's dry
  So, I finally made it
  Coming all through, over all these
  boulders
  You get presented
  by this. You still have to navigate
  a couple of obstacles with your flip flops
  which by
  default
  is a challenge
  because these things are so slippery
  Especially when they get wet. You fall on
  normal tiles
  Well, now we know why this side
  has no life. It's uninhabited
  Rough seas, rough terrain
  and from
  Southeast Asia perspective
  the sea here is quiet rough
  I know it's nothing compared
  to the open oceans
  but for this part of the world
  that's the worst I've seen
  which is quite nice, in a way
  Don't expect any nice restaurants
  or tourists here
  I believe this side of the island
  is like the second page of Google
  The unknown
  I missed the sunrise by
  a good 10-15 minutes
  On the eastern side of
  Malaysia the sun comes up at about
  06:54am
  in the mornings not
  08:30am as in the western side
  So this it for the
  eastern side of the island
  There's a sun and that's basically it
  You can if you really really dare
  walk over these
  rocks
  up to there. From there I don't see
  that you would be able to go any further
  There's a nice little cave. It might be interesting
  I'm not sure, I saw it on
  the drone footage
  but I can't see any further than that
  And then
  the shore is going that side to
  the northern side. There's the open
  place to walk. You will not be able
  to get further than
  there about. If you're
  lucky, to that point, but that's it
  From the drone footage
  right at the end, it's beautiful
  It's very rocky and
  that's where the island ends and just
  after that is another island with a resort
  on.
  Just behind this corner
  it's beautiful. It's a
  beautiful coastline
  with high cliffs
  There's my path back to
  civilisation
  The walkway was done nicely
  at the lowest point so you don't have
  to cross any high mountains like here or
  high hills
  There's still a tiny
  bit of uphill but nothing serious
  The last stretch is a bit
  difficult and challenging
  but the first stretch, quite easy
  It's me, challenging
  some scary obstacles with flip flops
  Once I look past the view
  I can see
  the walkway is going up here. So maybe I must go
  check quickly. I think it leads you to the top
  and that's also
  where the most beautiful part is of
  this side of the island. Let's go and have a look
  Up here
  right on the cliff
  there's dense bush all the way
  to the end, so you can't really get a view
  To Berakit, that's where I came from
  I guess this is a circular route
  Hopefully it leads me back
  to the other side
  On this island you can see they're trying
  Do your duty to keep nature a beauty
  which is very nice
  because nature isn't
  beautiful with a lot of rubbish lying
  around
  First signs of life
  Some chalets down here
  I guess I'm
  to the western side again
  I've been walking
  past this pathway
  the whole time and
  a bit of a disappointment
  you walk on the edge of the cliff the whole time
  Not once do you
  get a nice view. You always see that
  You can see there's the ocean. You can hear it
  You can feel it
  but you can not see it
  which is quiet a
  frustration at times
  The word Kapas means cotton
  in Malay. If you experience
  the white sandy beaches
  it is very obvious where this island
  gets its name from

  and Happy Wanderlusting!
