A Getaway to Cherating, Pahang: Attractions and Things to Do

Located just next to Club Med Cherating resort is an attraction not to be missed: the Cherating Turtle Sanctuary. This unique centre was established in 1972 and opened its doors to visitors in 1998.

Here, turtles that come to lay eggs on the beach between April and August can be protected. It is also an education centre that raises awareness on the importance of turtle conservation to the public through exhibits and their hatchling programme. The latter involves collecting newborn hatchlings and keeping them safe at the centre until the baby turtles can be released back to sea. If you visit between the months of June and October, you might just be lucky enough to catch the baby turtles hatch or be released back to the sea!

Discover the mangrove river cruise at night and marvel at the luminous fireflies that illuminate the atmosphere. As you delve into this fairytale of an experience, our local naturalist will explain to you how these beautiful winged beetles use light to communicate—a one-of-a-kind Cherating attraction you simply can’t miss out on!
