**********

To many, Cherating is synonymous with Club Med since Asia's first Club Med is located here. The resort is a low-rise development with extensive landscaping. It has one of the finest beaches in the East Coast.

Situated only 47 km from Kuantan, it is unique feature is the rustic atmosphere and the warm hospitality of the village folk. Cherating also offers you the chance to shop for handicraft and see cultural performances.

Village maidens nimbly weave the pandanus leaves into mats, hats, bags and other inexpensive lightweight souvenirs.

Cultural shows include wayang kulit (shadow play) and silat (Malay art of self-defence).
