Lets Go To East Coast

If you are planning a holiday to Malaysia and would like to see more than Kuala Lumpur, I suggest you spend a few days in the East Coast. Malaysia is one of the best places in Asia to get anywhere by the wheel. Road conditions are good, traffic well mannered and executive taxi fare very reasonable. The meter fare is about RM750.00 but you can negotiate with the drivers for a better deal. 



It is a very good idea to travel by executive taxi because it is comfortable, with a good guide and you will also get to enjoy the scenic views of Malaysia's countryside along the way.



In Terengganu, Tanjong Jara Resort has one of the best beaches in Peninsular Malaysia. 

There are 99 gorgeous rooms hidden among the palms or on the edge of the beach that spills out from the tangled foliage. Through my personal experience, this resort in Dungun Terengganu is the best choice.  It is a complex of timber bungalows wrapped around a lagoon. 

Here are some of my personal collection of photos during my holiday there with my family recently.

Driving to Tanjong Jara Resort from Kuala Lumpur via East Coast Expressway (Lebuh Raya Pantai Timur) is a real experience for many. The 370 km + - distance can be covered in more or less four hours. Its good to go easy and enjoy the journey. Take a break at rest and recovery areas along the way.
