Teluk Cempedak
Edit SpotAbout
Since Teluk Cempedak is very near Kuantan town, it is mostly crowded. Locals usually just swim or laze on the beach. There is only a group of local surfers who practically live on the beach. So, if you're up there and need some tips, they will be more than happy to help. But... don't forget to bring some beer as a "gift"!
