| Many of the best fitness campaigns on Pangkil have been known to founder in favour of the
number one activity which is …
ENERGY
MINIMIZATION !
This is without a doubt the primary activity on Pangkil
and includes the categories of Sleeping (there are
hammocks everywhere), Sun Bathing (choose your beach),
Slounging (classy Indonesian furniture is scattered
at both ends of the island), Dozing and Reading.
Warning: You may have to walk the
entire length of the island for a meal. We recommend
that you amble. This takes about 10 minutes !

MUSIC
We have music systems at both ends of the island.
We have a limited collection of CDs so we suggest
you bring your own. Some groups have managed to plug
iPods/MP3 players into the music systems with success.
SWIMMING
We have a swimming pontoon in the sea in front of the
Main House. The fresh-water pool is so awesome that
it has a page of its own.
OUT-DOOR ACTIVITIES
These include:
- Volleyball
- Boules
- Sailing – we have two Lasers (dinghies)
- Kayaking – we have 6 new sea kayaks and
a few older ones for beginners
- Snorkelling (about 10 sets of equipment)
- Jogging (the jungle tracks are perfect for this)

MASSAGES
A masseuse is available, but we need to bring her
from Bintan. If you would like a massage on the day
you arrive, please let us know in advance. For next-day
massages, simply let our staff know when you first
meet them in Bintan and this will be arranged. Massages
cost S$20 for between 45 and 60 minutes.
Warning: These are deep muscle massages
!
FISHING
Fishing trips can be arranged with a day’s notice.
Generally this is Indonesian-style fishing where the
boat crew will show you how to bait a hook which is
then hung over the side of the launch. We have a few
fishing rods but suggest that serious fisher folk
bring their own. Our staff will arrange bait on short
notice. For those intending to fish pretty much full-time,
please give us at least 48-hours notice and we can
arrange a large amount of bait. We also ask that you
don’t fish off the island. These fish are for
looking at not eating !
OTHER
We are not generally able to provide a television for guests.
