Kuantan, the capital of Pahang state, is located on the east coast of Malaysia. This town is well-organised and bustling with activities. Kuantan also has some of the country’s oldest colonial buildings, the Courthouse and the JKR building.
Kuantan is also popular with tourists, many of whom make special trips to watch turtles lay eggs. But there are also a number of beachcombers who flock to Cherating, a cluster of seaside villages, north of Kuantan. Teluk Cempedak Beach, about 4km from the town, in worth a visit.
This is an excellent beach for swimming and watersports. If you are adventurous, take a trip to Lake Chini which is actually a series of 12 connecting bodies of water, covered by a carpet of lotus blossoms between the months of June and September.
Rantau Abang is the main turtle beach, a spot where leatherback turtles come ashore to lay their eggs. August is the peak laying season.
