Sekayu
Waterfalls, Kuala Berang
A
favorite retreat for visitors and locals alike, it has seven cascades
surrounded by its natural landscape of lush jungle-clad hills, a fruit
orchard, a mini zoo, a bird park, a flower garden, and countless species
of flora and fauna. Various facilities such as shelters, changing rooms,
chalets, and rest-houses have also been provided for visitors' convenience.
Rantau
Abang
About
60km south of Kuala Terengganu, the beach at Rantau Abang is the venue
for the annual migration of huge leatherback turtles. Visitors have to
lay in wait quietly from midnight to dawn to watch giant leatherback turtles
laying eggs. These giant turtles, up to 2.5m in length and sometimes weighing
more than 375kg, is indeed a phenomenal sight to behold. From the months
of May to September, Rantau Abang is one of only six places in the world
visited by these turtles.
