The car journey to Lake Kenyir from Kuala Terengganu took us less than two hours. We had prepaid for the Fish Sanctuary experience at RM10 per adult. Upon arrival, we paid RM2 for whole day parking. A boat which we had pre-arranged is already waiting for us. We left the jeti at 910am. There were already people at the Fish Sanctuary when we arrived at 10am. After a briefing, we were taken by our boat up Sg Petang to the start of the walkway. It took us 15 to 30 minutes to reach the natural sanctuary. Midway, we were told to buy fish food at RM2 per packet. (I suspect the fish are feeding only on fish food brought in by visitors like us. Is this right or wrong??) After half an hour in the waters, we trekked back and our boat brings us to Lasir Waterfalls. We spent almost an hour there and returned to the jetty at about 3pm. We actually drove and had a look at the Elephant Sanctuary. But the price was too steep with not a discount even for that late time in tne afternoon. We had a late lunch at Warung Mr Baung a kilometer away on the main road. The fish was well cooked especially the Baung Tempoyan.

GIve time to yourself to understnad the history of this mosque.This white mosque have a rich history and by looking at their surrounding made us learn a little about that. Tips: 1. Find local during prayer time especially at the night (7pm to 8 pm ) to get know their tradition. 2. Very near to Pasar Payang with walking distance.
8. Teluk Keke

4.5 based on 71 reviews
KK.Beach is the southwestern side of Perhentian Besar. There are several beautiful coral gardens in front of here, so you can enjoy snorkeling here all day. The useful information for here is being able to get here without boat. The way to here is simple. You can get here with walking along the beach from Big Beach (in front of Tuna Bay) to south.

Teluk Keke was supposed to be the more isolated beach, but there was an event going on during my visit, and the northern part of the beach was filled with people and boats. This part of the beach had camping grounds and shade from large trees as well. Avoiding the crowd, I walked to the south of the bay, beyond the boulders outcrop, where surprisingly not many people was there. The surface of those boulders was quite smooth, they must have withstand quite a lot of weathering. The beach to the south was narrower with thick vegetation inland, and was quite a quiet place with enough private beach space for everybody there. This was a beautiful isolated beach with green vegetation, fine sand and clear water.

It is my favourite island in Malaysia so far. I have been to Kapas 3 times and each time was unforgettable. So here is my summary opinion on that island. Pros: •clean and turquoise water •lots of fish and sea creatures to be seen, even when snorkelling next to the shore •free Wi-Fi on the beach provided by Terranganu state •white sandy beaches •super chilled vibe •great place for a romantic gateway •very close to mainland, therefore, cheap price for transportation and food/beer runs can be done •very nice people working and living on the island •great dive shop with super nice people working there, highly recommend for courses and fun dives Cons: •not too much to do apart from swimming, snorkelling, kayaking, diving, so if you are not a "sea" person consider a different location for your holidays •not many accomodation options, so if you are going during the public holidays, book way in advance •lots of mosquitoes, bring lots of repellent •not too many cafes and restaurants, stop at the market in Marang before your boat departs and buy lots of fruits and snacks All in all, I consider Kapas a great place for a holiday, but don't go there if you are expecting 5 star resorts or partying in the bars all night.
