Cherating Beach ( Kuantan )
Less than 50km north of Kuantan is Cherating. Cherating is the perfect antidote
to frantic city life. Here, wide gently sloping sandy beaches,
line d with casuarinas trees, extend as far as the eye can see.
The
enamored and fabulous sparkling seas, pristine beaches and cool breezes made Club
Mediterranean open its first Asian venture here, on a private beach. The main
Cherating beach is the location of many hotels, reboots and chalets, catering
for all budgets.
First
popularized by the backpackers, Cherating is now popular with many visitors who
came to enjoy the beach, sea and sun. Handicraft shops and cultural establishments
have been established, and many visitors enjoy making their own batiks. Batik
painting and pandanus handicrafts remain popular souvenirs from Cherating.
Beserah Beach (Kuantan)
Beserah is a quaint fishing village and
is well-known for salted fish. But what many people do not know is the very unique
practice of the Beserah fisherman: They employ water buffalo to transport fish
from the boats to the processing area. Beserah is the only place in Malaysia where
buffalo are used on the beaches.
Located just 8 km north of Kuantan (on
the road to Terengganu). |
