| 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.
INTERNET
We have internet connection (Wireless) on island. It is free of charge
and almost whole island covered except pool area. Please ask for Island
manager assistance.
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.
POOL TABLE / BILLIARD
We have a pool table under the big house. It is free of charge. Please
look after them well during and after play.
PROJECTOR & SCREEN
We have a projector + screen on island. It can be used for meeting or
cinema paradiso for adults or kids. Please seek assistance from Island
Manager.
OUT-DOOR ACTIVITIES
These include:
- Volleyball
- Boules
- Sailing – we have four 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$30
for 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 !
The fee is $10 per adult and S$5 per child.
We require a minimum of 5paxs to make this happen.
OTHER
We are not generally able to provide a television for guests.
