Many sides of Sempu weren’t explored yet. Some friend did trekking to 2-3 other beaches (they said those were beautiful even more difficult to reach). But I did enjoy being still in the east side. It was rocky area with strong winds, sound of splashing waves crashing the rocks, forceful - tremendous sea ahead, and sensation of being so small and fragile; scared and thankful I was at the same time. Camping in Sempu was quite easy, if you need not to pee, bath, “etc” for 1-2 day...

Ciberang - Sempu - Baluran, July 2007 Lomo Fisheyes + 2 fuji superia ISO 200 + unexpected filters on PS = MUUCH FUN!!

This was the trip about 3 month ago . Beginning with the curiousity about the place as beautiful as Lagoon's Phi phi island in Leonardo di Caprio's movie "The Beach" but place here in Indonesia rather than Thailand there. It took hours to drive, spending the night in someone elses home, across the calm sea by boat and trekking for 1 hour (Ouch, that's axhausting) and finallly there's the lagoon with white sand and sea water blowing from a rock hole. C'est magnifique!!!
