4.8/5 · 51 review
Highlights:
Cherating Bay is about half an hour's drive from the city, you can rent a car, it's very cheap, and the scenery along the way is very beautiful. The area of the beach is very large, but there are not many people. It is a very suitable place for leisure and vacation. There are flowers and plants all over the ground, and the humid sea breeze is refreshing. Kuantan's white sandy beaches are like a forgotten corner of the world, with impeccable beauty and nature. Various shops, restaurants and other living facilities on the beach are also readily available. You can swim, dive or play beach volleyball.

4.6/5 · 60 review
Highlights:
Teluk Cempedak is a famous tourist destination in Malaysia. It is located in the north of Kuantan City, Pahang State, only 6 kilometers away from the city center. It is an ideal place for local and foreign tourists to play in the water. The long coastline has wide sandy beaches, and many people come here to play during the holidays. There are many large stones on the beach, and these large stones can also be used as a very freehand portrait shooting background. At dusk, the sunset shines on the brown stones and turns golden yellow, which is very beautiful. The beach also has flat and wide pedestrian paths, and there is also a line of small shops selling beach toys, tank tops, T-shirts and souvenirs, a children's playground and various snack bars nearby. There will also be some street art performances.
