Kuala Linggi Hidden Treasure

The Chalet we stayed in faced the beach only small road that separate us from the beach. We get a good view of the beach compared to other chalets. It was actually a house with two bedrooms, (three on request - one room is located strategically to become a separate room for rent), with queen size bed on each room, a kitchen with stove for cooking (additional charges for gas), fridge and a tv.

We managed to rent the house with the help of Azhari a.k.a Ali the operator of Inapan Samudera, another chalet owned by his brother. The chalet is situated on land inherited from his ancestors. His Chalet was already fully booked.

The areas are also a favourite among tv and film producers, for its secluded areas, nice and antique houses, quiet and serene and sometime spooky? But the place is really nice for getaways, situated far from major roads, separated by a hill.

Nearby is an old Dutch Fort during the Dutch occupation of Melaka, called Fort Supai or Sepoi according to old history textbook.


Now at the edge of the Fort, the state government had built a floating restaurant "Ikan Bakar". The place is situated right at the mouth of Sungai Linggi, thus the name Kuala Linggi.

The old Fort is situated on top of a hill and on top there was, I thought it was a grave, eerie, see photo. Then there are a few canons, ruins of the Fort, the remains of the walls and a field most probably the compound of the Fort. The grass on field looks like it was neatly trimmed and well maintained but the surroundings, especially near the place I suspect was a grave - was not maintained. Creepy!
