Travel Guide Kampung Penarik

Penarik is a traditional fishing village north of Kuala Terengganu. The attraction of this area lies in its long beach and kampungs surrounded by coconut trees. One comes here to seek calm and serenity in an authentic atmosphere. The large enclosed sheds are home to thousands of swallows. Small holes allow them to enter the shelter. The nests, which are the delights of the Chinese, are edible, and are worth a small fortune (several thousand ringgits per kilo). They are sold to agencies specialized in export. A whole business that makes more money than fishing.From Kuala Terengganu, a bus takes 1 hour to Penarik
