Pantai Balok

Reviewed By SyahiirahS1 - Malaysia, null

Free parking and little commercialization makes this beach perfect for a private getaway. The sun rises from the water horizon, perfect for the mood and pictures.

Natural Batik Village

Reviewed By PatrickW4153

Been there in the early morning hours and designed two bags. It was a lot of fun to do and we recieved willing help from the workers. Afterwards we saw the factory how theire products are made and designed. It was worth the money AND on top they delivered the finished bags to our hotel. Thanks again this was amazing customer service and a great experience.

Teluk Chempedak

Reviewed By chrrul - London, United Kingdom

Very nice beach, empty during the day with some nice local food outlets - well worth walking along the bridge to the second, smaller bay for a swim...

Taman Esplanade

Reviewed By geng59 - Kuantan, Malaysia

Bring your family, young and old, for family bonding whilst taking a stroll along the Kuantan River waterfront. Do your exercises here too if you like. For the fisherman in you, dawn and dusk is the place to be to enjoy your passion.For the young and young at heart, the McD outlet along this stretch might be your hangout after a refreshing walk. Otherwise, there are numerous food outlets at the far end to whet your appetites, mostly Malay cuisine and Pahang food specialties. Parking spots may be limited during peak hours in the evening but worth the effort if you do not mind to walk a bit. Otherwise, enjoy the Kuantan River waterfront. Pretty soon, Kuantan Tower will be ready for more exciting adventures when you are in Kuantan. Awesome!

Cherating Beach

Reviewed By superscotty - Stratford-upon-Avon, United Kingdom

most of the east coast is a long straight beach and much of it a bit dull and much of it has loads of plastic washed up at the tideline. Cherating is in a proper bay with an attractive headland at the northern end. its a good surf beach and when i was there although the waves were less than a metre they were amazingly powerful. part of the village are a bit run down but this is an interesting spot to chillout at.

Cherating Turtle Sanctuary

Reviewed By PGzzz - New Quay, United Kingdom

A very simple excursion. Book up-front (we did earlier the same day), turn up at the allotted time (in early evening before it gets dark) and get a bucketful each of 16 or so one-week old baby turtles to release on the beach close to the water. A lovely experience, and a good cause, in them protecting and coaxing the eggs into healthy little creatures. Take time to visit the Sanctuary during the day too. They are doing some renovation/development work now (Aug 2019), but the small museum is very informative. And free of charge, but please do leave a donation ;-)
