FISHING
VILLAGE No visit to Kelantan would be complete without a trip
to a fishing village dubbed "the soul of Malaysia's East Coast".Two
of the most well-known villages are the Sabak Beach (approx. l4 km from
Kota Bharu) If you wish to fully capture the moment, you should arrive
no later than 4.00 pm everyday except Fridays when the boats laden with
the day's catch are first spotted on the horizon, As they come ashore,
their intricately carved prows are a riot of colours. Then the bargaining
begins between wholesalers and the fishermen - a noisy but interesting
ritual. You will also be able to witness other related activities such
as fish-curing and the mending of nets. Buses No. 8 and 9 depart every
half hour from the old local bus terminal to Sabak Beach.
