Sukamade: Turtle Beach

To see these extraordinary creatures, we faced a rough road and rivers to cross. We were told that we needed a four-wheel drive vehicle and were strongly advised against taking our old Toyota Kijang. As it turned out, the difficulty only added to the overall experience of visiting this wild, totally undisturbed, empty and inhospitable three-kilometer-long stretch of coastline pounded by the dangerous deep green surf of the Indian Ocean.
