Miri has many sandy beaches. The beaches in Miri are Tanjung Loban Beach, Luak Bay Esplanade, Lutong Beach, Hawaii Beach, Trusan Beach, Piasau Beach and Bungai Beach. The long stretches of beaches in Miri are a popular weekend getaway.During my free time, I will always go to the beach to view breathtaking sunset and sunrise , chilling with friends and eating seafood. My first beach that I went in Miri is Tanjung Loban Beach. It is an oldest recreational park in Miri town which have golden sand and open air food market. Assorted seafood and fresh coconut juices can be found along the stalls at the open air market.There also have a children playground and barbeque area available for public enjoyment (Beaches In Miri, n.d.).

Luak Esplanade is a white sandy beach that is located 12km away from Miri town. This is a nice place where people go for a walk along the beach, picnic, barbeque, families outing whilst enjoying the lovely scenery of South China Sea especially during the time of sunrise and sunset . During the weekend, there will have a lot of food stalls that sell local delight, food and drinks along the street beside the beach (Beaches In Miri, n.d.). The beautiful sunset scene and windy sea breeze there help to calm my mind. Beach Republic is a nice place for the whole family to hangout near Luak Bay Esplanade. It has a café, basketball court and children swimming pool to fulfill the pleasure and enjoyment of the public.

Besides that, Tanjung Loban beach and Luak Bay Esplanade was a location spot for my individual and group assignment. I took gorgeous beach snapshot at the beach .Beautiful seaside scene and windy environment made my group need to take extra precaution of the broadcasting equipments and accomplished the duties in a short duration time when shooting at outdoor scene. This showed that teamwork and good communication skill is very important when doing group assignment.
