If you like diving activities to see marine life and coral reefs, Perhentian Island is highly recommended for you on vacation.
Masjid Tengku Tengah Zaharah
Masjid Tengku Tengah Zaharah is the first real floating mosque in Malaysia. If you look from far, it will seem like floating. It is located in Kuala Ibai Lagoon near the estuary of Kuala Ibai River, 4 km from Kuala Terengganu Town.  If you are on holiday to Kuala Terengganu on Friday, do not miss the opportunity to pray Friday here.
Pusat Santuari Penyu Rantau Abang
Now the turtle species is getting extinct and it's hard to see turtle laying in Terengganu. At Pusat Santuari Penyu, tourists can see and learn more about turtles as Majlis Penasihat Santuari Penyu Negeri Terengganu is responsible for all forms of protection, conservation and management of turtles in Terengganu Darul Iman.
Imagine an adorable fleet of tiny turtles flopping their way towards sea, leaving the beach behind them until their miraculously return, years later, to nest at the exact site of their birth. For lovers of nature and all things cute, witnessing a sea turtle hatch will be an unforgettable experience.
