Get in

Most visitors to the Perhentians bypass the bulk of Terengganu and instead transit via Kota Bharu, in the neighboring state of Kelantan, which offers better connections by air and train and is only one hour away. However, Kuala Terengganu and other locations along the main north-south highway are accessible via long-distance bus from Kuala Lumpur and various other cities.

By plane

Kuala Terengganu's own Sultan Mahmud Airport (TGG) does field a number of flights daily from capital Kuala Lumpur. It's a two-hour drive from here to Kuala Besut, the usual jumping-off point for the islands.

Eat

Terengganu's most famous culinary product is the humble keropok lekor, which comes in two forms: one is a thin deep-fried cracker much like keropok anywhere else in Malaysia, and the other is a thick hot dog-like sausage entirely unlike it. Both are made from fish paste and sago palm flour and should always be accompanied by a reddish-brown dipping sauce of tamarind, chili, sugar and vinegar.
