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.
