Masjid Sultan Zainal Abidin

Reviewed By ifwhat - Johor Bahru, Malaysia

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.

Teluk Keke

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.

Reviewed By BigAsianChoice - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

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.

Kapas Island

Reviewed By 818adelyak

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.
