BATU BUROK BEACH RESORT, KUALA TERENGGANU

Batu Burok Beach Resort (now knows as DSH Batu Burok Beach Resort), located at Jalan Pantai Batu Buruk, Kampung Pantai Batu Burok, Kuala Terengganu.

The beach next to the resort is beautiful for walking and enjoying the sunrise, but swimming was strongly not recommended due to strong currents. 

I stayed at this hotel with colleagues from the Malaysian Heart Foundation during the Health Screening Program in Kuala Terengganu in the years 2015, 2016 and 2018.

Culturally, Terengganu has a lot in common with its northern neighbour, Kelantan, but the cultural and historical differences between the two states make Kelantan interesting and well worth including in your trip to Terengganu. A bus ride from Kuala Terengganu to Kota Bharu lasts only about three hours.
