Understand

With 340,000 people Kuantan is the largest city on the Malaysian east coast. However, it has little if anything of interest to the casual visitor, and most people just pass by or stop for the night on their way north or south.

Get in

By plane

Kuantan's small Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah Airport (KUA) currently only fields a few daily flights to Kuala Lumpur (40 min, full price RM 122) plus a single weekly flight to Kuala Terengganu.

By bus

Kuantan is about 5 hours from Kuala Lumpur by bus. Fares are currently around RM 14.30.

By car

Opened in 2004, the Karak Highway (Highway 2) connects Kuantan to Kuala Lumpur, and the distance of 277 kilometers can be covered in 3-3.5 hours.
