berhala island the natural stony- white sand beach when we arrived on white sand beach, we got the natural soul like the wind blowing softly in incridible panorama. this is very completely site to avoid our routine. if the adventure begins probably it shoul be start from here eventhough this is only small island in eastern part of sumatra sea, closest to singkep island kepri province indonesia. but historically the island is more cronicles to jambi province land of sumatra because the name of the island "berhala" comes from the first king of new kingdom of jambi at 15th century. traveling to the sacred natural island is full of challenges as well a beautiful adventure. you are really entering the gate of impressive realm, when we try booking the traveling there only have once a week schedule , usually does the voyage from nipah has (nearest port of jambi province) from jambi city to nipah needs 3 hours travelling by car because of the bad road is the first challenge to get there. if we got nipah (small town) nearest to estuary the river batanghari when there is no trip to berhala island, we should be ready to get hotel along the mouth river town there. from nipah to berhala spends up to 1 hour by wooden small boat with capacity 35 passenger, the boat is enough faster because of using the double mechine with 200 hp strenght , the second challenge is the uncomfortable boat, beside the chair from wooden board also the jolt of the wave perhaps necessary take more energy to restrain the wave though its not long time but those all will be paid with the naturally adventural island, the excotic sand with granite stone growing from island stare you a wonder. the third challange is no hotel here only the inns from local. so if you wonder so much , you must pass through the challenges because of unique the natural gives us more than we ecpect.
