[@muhammadabdulwahab123]

I could not decide

[@izdiharsahalan]

TC!

[@wh6665]

This beach and beaches of Terengganu

[@window2000]

of course beaches on the island Darren..east coast..

[@peggyhiew1730]

Kuantan is my hometown...the place where I grew up & am still living in...so definitely it's TC!

[@BonkersAboutAlice]

We're planning part of a trip to Malaysia next year just because you.

[@remotedarren]

Great to hear! I’m sure you’ll love it!

[@yanyanalia9987]

Welcome to Malaysia and enjoy your holiday here 😊

[@bobhensem3425]

Welcome to the food heaven of the world

Kuantan Checklist: - Sungai Pandan (Pandan River) - Sungai Lembing (Lembing River) - Sungai Lembing Museum - Pantai Sepat (Sepat Beach, usually for picnic) - Pantai Batu Hitam (Black Rock Beach) - Pekan Museum - Esplanade with Teruntum Tower (Riverside, not sure if the Tower is already open for public or not) - Restoran Zaman (for popular Nasi Lemak in Kuantan, very long queue and come early in morning) - Jaman Tori (popular traditional village dishes restaurant) - Nasi Kukus My Mama (very popular Nasi Kukus franchise in Kuantan) - Ana Ikan Bakar (Famous grilled fish and seafood restaurant) - Mabiq (Tasty traditional village dishes) - Almira Steamboat (with cheese) / Aniq Steamboat / Ghalit Steamboat - Sara Boat Noodle (I think it is closed at the moment but not really sure why) - Mee Tarik Warisan, KCM (popular pull noodle with tasty broth, other states also available but just wanna let you know in Kuantan we have one too)

[@andrewchong2616]

What more can u ask for with a peaceful beach listening to the waves crashing onto the shore & rocks and the sound of moving tree branches & leaves.. awesome!!!

[@hudahalim18]

Of course i love this beach. It's just 15 minutes drive from my house. Pantai Teluk Chempedak or TC for short.. Love to go there after hiking up the Bukit Pelindung. It will be full of tourists during the weekend though. Other beaches in Kuantan are nice too. If you are still in Kuantan, perhaps you can go to the Pelangi Waterfall. It's really beautiful

[@remotedarren]

I’m hoping to go back, loved Kuantan and you’re so lucky being close to the beach!

[@hudahalim18]

@Leonard Carr yes. Chempedak is a fruit. Similar family to nangka or jackfruit, but smaller & more fragrance.

[@amirism91]

I went to TC about 9 yrs ago when my aunt live in Kuantan. She and her family moved to Kulim, Kedah near to my grandma house and now she works there at Kulim Hightech hospital. Hope you can go Kulim as well because it is near to Penang. You can check out Langkawi too. One of the most famous island in Malaysia. It's like Bali of Malaysia. Lot of tourists

[@nanami-rh3hm]

I remember Nanami 😞💔

[@FloatingCasbah]

Glad you liked our beautiful hometown of kuantan, darren. Do come back again mate

[@sally2869]

Stunning place. Beautiful video. Enjoy your trip.

[@FoodandFootprints]

That beach looks absolutely beautiful! We would like to make it to Kuantan as long as we are allowed to stay longer 🤞🏼🤞🏼

[@remotedarren]

As foodies. Kuantan is a must. If the MCO is extended and we can stay, I’m going to head back there.

[@Yasin_Affandi]

U have visited Kota Bharu, Kelantan n Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu. Kuantan, Pahang is your next stop.

[@Yasin_Affandi]

I know McD is not really on your list in Malaysia, but Kuantan, I think, is d only city in Malaysia which has McDonald's by d river n by d beach.

[@Yasin_Affandi]

Besides Teluk Cempedak in this video, cherating beach area is also popular. Club Med has a property there.

[@deltahunter2302]

MCO extended! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@butterflyyy8087]

RIP Nanami❤

[@jaonthemove3956]

wow...that white sandy beach and clear water very beautiful.

[@remotedarren]

Yes it was!

[@hijazzains]

Kuantan is actually one of the more liveable cities with a very low density population. Its a good place to raise a family with nice beaches and close to the rainforests. Teluk Cempedak is usually busy during weekends.

[@mohdroshrosli4275]

ty sir for the video of kuantan..i'm really miss my hometown...its bring back memories back then when i in my teens..i used to be skiping my school there with my besties...to think it allmost 5 year i living here the other side of the sea...in borneo sabah..really miss that place..ty again for the video sir..n stay safe..

[@remotedarren]

Thank you for watching and I’m glad it brought back good memories. Have two more videos coming up from Kuantan

[@stanian2]

I have to say that theat area does look spectacular. I wouldn't complain too much about being stranded there myself.

[@Giles_Heaton]

See 2:05. Those trees in the background grew on the body of a long dead dragon. His body provided rich nutrients to the jungle and sea creatures which in turn thrived. Even now 10 thousand years later the dragons head still sits in the ocean, in perpetual peace.

[@dennis.35th]

Thank you again for a stunning video. You deserve being on this place, Darren.

[@remotedarren]

Thank you! Hope you’re well

[@JimmyLager]

Wow! Amazing, thanks for sharing, this looks like our next place to visit next time we can come back to Malaysia.

[@WanderingMunchers]

I've been to teluk cempedak (tc) quite a number of times but all during monsoon season. I've never seen the water in tc so clear. Because during monsoon season the water was mostly murky due to strong current and massive waves. Monsoon season is the best time to surf in tc. And by the way the beach on the other side (where you couldn't accessed) adjacent to tc is called teluk tongkang beach, the sand at teluk tongkang is dark grayish unlike tc.

[@ChefBuckRecipes]

wow...super nice...I can't believe how long you've been in Malaysia!

[@remotedarren]

I know, SIX months now!

[@kgdangar2]

what a stunning view. the beach looks so nice!

[@stewartgrant7724]

HI Darren Another great Video from the best country in the world yes although very quiet due to the uncertain times it was lovely weather you had at least you did not go in the Monsoon Season that South China Sea would have been very rough and stormy you are in a must better country than me I am living in the UK where is not normal at all so stay where you are and enjoy it and all that lovely local food

[@IreneMy]

Breathtaking landscape with blue sky laced with fluffy cottonballs...👌👍👍. Stay safe and happy trails, Darren.

[@muhamadrusdi1941]

Love ur superb video... Love those teluk cempedak beach view... Awesome..

[@laikeatlim8261]

White sandy beach and clear water. So serene.

[@skbeebee8923]

clear blue sky perfect to capture such beautiful sight of the beach..well done Darren, if cloudy dark sky ,the beach would look dull and grey

[@remotedarren]

Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, the weather in Kuantan was beautiful.

[@nesadcruz7840]

Good to see Its still as good as when we holidayed there more than 15 years ago

[@arifsalikin]

Absolutely agree with you, one of the best beaches in the East Coast. The hotel is Hyatt Regency Kuantan, I spent 2 nights there late last year and always looking forward to go back to Kuantan.

[@chinthomas6854]

Beautiful sandy beaches and plenty of sun shine, stay safe pal

[@remotedarren]

Thank you, you too.

[@liortepper3619]

Thanks for the video Darren, beautiful place. Take care

[@alessandrab7181]

Nanamin❤

[@kil0677]

Selain di Kuantan...banyak lagi pantai lain contoh seperti pantai kempadang,pantai batu hitam,pantai cherating,pantai air leleh,pantai balok dan pantai sepat

[@suhailmahmood4097]

Awesome beach. Not too many people and I love that. The beach is clean and the water is clear. Well, I think the east coast is always a good destination for beach-goers.

[@CLGan]

thanks Darren for showing my beautiful country!

[@mohdfakhrul5382]

Nice you in kuantan....yap teluk cempedak is my feveret too...when at night..i like staying at the sand and just chilling...

[@Yasin_Affandi]

Finally u have made it, to a beautiful beach. D east coast has some of d most beautiful beaches in Malaysia. This looks like d Teluk Cempedak beach in Kuantan, Pahang.

[@TheRahsoft]

yeah, the kuantan beaches are the best of all that I have seen. Been a long time since I went there for a weekend with the family. Saw the wau bulan flyers( got photos), the local seafood is amazing and my late father-in-law told us about when he was a teacher working in kuantan. It's an ideal place to live I believe if you are not too worried about finances and like a peaceful life. East coast always better, quieter, but less economic activity

[@iamurmakteh]

This is my favourite beach n the hotel is Hyatt resorts. It has the most beautiful beach view n having breakfast at the cafe there is really awesome.

[@remotedarren]

I might treat myself to a night or two there, the location is perfect.

[@acr9319]

Darren thank you, your videos are great and I together with the many I'm sure enjoy them very much. Can I ask you one thing though - when showing the views, still or panoramic, can you slow down just a little so we can soak them in more as they are truly brilliant and cos we are not there it seems at least to me that they're a little too short. Otherwise Brilliant! and Thank you..

[@outwithem]

WOW! It looks absolutely stunning!

[@elarlim]

Amazing trip Darren!!

[@remotedarren]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@domi9577]

Dunno if you've been to Phuket but you'd love it. Great beaches plus malls and mountain views.

[@terataibiru4997]

At last u reach my homestate-Pahang...Before the pandemic , it was very happening in Telok Cempedak especially at nites..

[@zaidahabubakar7935]

Wow..what a day..love the beach n blue sky

[@remotedarren]

Yes, very lucky, the weather was stunning in Kuantan, really enjoyed my week there!

[@nas1323]

Welcome to Kuantan! 🤗

[@poblade63]

darren u need to try kerepok lekor near batu hitam beach.very delicious..make sure try abc or cendol too

[@syamilmuhd91]

Hi Darren. My fav beach would be in Pulau Besar. You can book a chalet and stay for at least 2 nights. It is about 30min boat trip from Mersing Jetty. I stayed in Aseania Chalet and I loved it.

[@Mohar-mo3no]

Most european tourists and backpackers prefer Cherating beach. The perhentian island beaches have snorkeling options. Pangkor laut resort have the most exclusive beach but it is expensive.

[@ismailhashim3378]

welcome to my hometown darren..u shoul come at night.very happening..full of people.enjoy ur day

[@NagiebLightwave]

Water looks clean.

[@jerungraksasa7373]

what a beautiful day ...

[@remotedarren]

It really was. I had luck on my side because nearly every day was like this.

[@ZAN3TE]

Very nice views👌, I wonder if you add a little bit of colour corrections to the video ? because the sky seems more blue than normal 😅

[@remotedarren]

ZAN3TE I did slightly colour correct but the weather was stunning all week, I was very lucky.

[@arty2k]

Trail closed due to damage when I was there 3 years ago. While you are there, try the resort and the safari/zoo place.

[@azztaffm1365]

the beach is a nice place to fly kites. the wind is perfect. I stayed at the hotel a couple of times. in the morning you can see a family of wild boar roaming on the beach. the beach is usually packed with people but it's probably because of the MCO, it looks so empty.

[@GustuneofficialYT]

Nice vlog ❤️ my friend

[@remotedarren]

Thank you!

[@RichartAsia]

Now I need to go!

[@AnnaOnRoads]

That beach! Just wow, thank you for sharing Darren :-) I've noticed the red flag is up, does it mean swimming is prohibited?

[@remotedarren]

I believe so, although I think it will be more because of the portuguese man of war jelly fish which were all the way along the coastline.

[@JomCantikTV]

I like this view. Very calm

[@remotedarren]

Yes, it was, only a few people on the beach too!

[@yanputra83]

Congratulations to the people taking care of the beach. It looked stunningly clean and beautiful.

[@remotedarren]

Yes, it was probably the cleanest beach I’ve seen in Malaysia too.

[@rickywong6014]

Much cleaner than Port Dickson beach.

Are you not in Malaysia? Plenty of social distancing on the beach during the day at weekday.

[@syedfadzilsyedmohsin393]

Hello Darren........ Wow now you travel in Pahang state and the capital Pahang state is Kuantan...... Darren do heard the best news about Malaysia Prime Miniister make an announcement about RMCO have been extended until 31st December 2020?..... So Darren you no need to worried about your visa right now because since the Malaysia RMCO have been extended that's means you are allow to stay in Malaysia much longer than you expected...... As long you don't leave from Malaysia since Malaysia started lockdown in March 2020.... But if you make a dicision to leave from Malaysia that's mean you are not allow to comeback in Malaysia anymore because Malaysia already close down from any traveller or border to entering the country very easily anymore..... If any traveller or outsider wants to enter to Malaysia after 31st August 2020 RMCO, they need to go a lots of process convid19 quarintine procedure or they would been reject to entering to Malaysia in the passport if they been convicted infection in convid19 virus... That's would make you a lots of difficulties to stay at airport alone...... Malaysia goverment won't given you any ficities anymore to any traveller who been convicted infection from convid19.... So what a lucky are you Darren you got this an opportunity to stay in Malaysia much safetier from convid19 in whole world

BEST Beach in Malaysia? As a local, Teluk Cempedak definitely not the best beach. It is normally very crowded pre-covid19.

[@arty2k]

About the beach. Very clean. The beach is mostly gravel, not sand. It wasn't popular pre-covid so that made it very relaxing for me.

[@remotedarren]

I'd disagree about it being gravel, was certainly sand that I was walking on. It was quiet though, but heard it gets very busy at night.
