To someone who really have fun with nature, I would like to recommend everyone to come here. And, remember to yourself that, the right moment to enjoy yourself in Terengganu, is from February until October. Avoid yourself to be in Terengganu in Monsoon season or you'll not experience these beautiful scenery.
During this visit, it was on midday, and the weather really bombastic which is really hot, the sunshine is really bright, the sky is really clear and even not so cloudy. Because it was low tide, so the waves also not really strong. Those who stay and always connected with South China Sea will know how the waves were.
*************************************************
The following building is for local or tourist to have their foods, or for observation of the river. The water level is really minimum, that is why we may see riverbed clearly. It built with jetty trek for trespassing. And for sure when it is tide, this area will fill up by water.
There, from this jetty gazebo, I am not sure either my term is right or not, but at least you get me.. :D ... I snapped the pictures from many angles to show you how much wonderful this places.
The following is the view to the ocean.
While the following is the view to the land.
The water level is really low which nothing is secret. You might see everything on the river surface. But I am not sure, how deep is the mud is. Careful..
Snails...
There are showing themselves when low tide.
*********************************
Leaving the Gazebo, we were moving to the beach.
At beach side....... yellow sand.... rocks... heavy breeze... What else do you want? Bright day, no rains, low tide, clear water...Oh my God, this visit is really perfect. Really on the right time.
The water flowing to the sea in between that two stones. However, during my visit on Dec or Nov 2015, the flowing changed. No longer here, but over that huge rock. Sorry no pictures for that visit since we were there for coffee break after almost 6 hour driving from Melaka to Dungun, Terengganu for official visit.
Some fisherman boats..... During tide, this river will be fulled of water and we will no longer see that sandy area. Do ensure yourself to be alerted to the water level, in order to ensure yourself not be tracked at any place which will cause you a bit unlucky.
Besides that, that is for your safety too.
Again, more local traditional fisherman boat.
There is a fish here, in the following picture. Can you see them? A bit blur because of the colour of water.
Along the river bank....
The flowing water behind the girl was actually the estuary. You may simply cross it to go to another area of the river mouth but only on low tide. When it is full tide, you are no longer can do so.
The only option do you have is road.
The other side of the beach.
The water is flowing, keeps flowing, ever and forever...... Like a tiger stone its colour.
The water is not mixed up.
Amazing...
Mr Crab who lives in the watered hole on the rock. We might seem a lot of aquatic animals on the rock here. I can said that they was tracked because of low tide.
I don't know what is kind of this animal. But it is really sharp. Be careful.
It may harm you feet.
Another Mr Crab.
A rock cave...
See carefully, what we have.....
A crowded snails stick to each other. Don't want to be a part....
See carefully, the water never mixed up. A chocolate water come from the river, while the green-blue one is from the sea.
This tree "Mengkuang laut" or also known as "Pandan Laut" (Pandanus odoratissimus), you can find easily at any beach in Terengganu.
So, that's all for now.
