WELCOME |
The
East Coast of Peninsula Malaysia is much more traditional
than other parts of the Country. It's far less populated and
more rural, with a more traditional - and typically Malay
- way of life. The pace of life is slower than in the increasingly
hectic cities of the west, and the visitor to this region
is often rewarded with an insight into the Malay culture that
most visitors don't experience. |
|
WHAT
TO DO |
The
main areas on the East coast include Kuantan and Cherating.
Kuantan is one of the most important towns in the region,
with a bustling market and some great beaches close by. It's
also a well known area for traditional Malay crafts such as
Batik. Further north, Cherating is a relaxing hideaway with
good beaches and a peaceful way of life, ideal for a relaxing
holiday. |
WHERE
TO STAY |
There's a good range of accommodation along Malaysia's East Coast, although it's more limited than in other parts of the Country, as this region receives fewer visitors. Standards of hotels tend to be good in the main areas. |
HOLIDAY
IDEAS |
