The beach along Pantai Kok is dominated by mostly high-end upscale resorts like the Sheraton, Tanjung Sanctuary and the Danna. The beach is beautiful with clean sands and clear waters but itââ¬â¢s the tourist attractions, as well as the relative peace and quiet, that makes this place so popular. Lined with a thoroughly modern marina, Pantai Kok, on the western part of the island approximately 12km north of Pantai Cenang, fronts a beautiful bay surrounded by limestone hills and verdant jungle. On the waterfront, at Teluk Burau, is the spanking-new Telaga Harbour Park, a yachting marina with a string of shops, bars and restaurants, plus a petrol station, bank and post office. Additionally it has several recreational attractions including a cable-car ride to the peak of Mat Cincang Mountain and the Telaga Tujuh Waterfalls. Pantai Kokââ¬â¢s relatively undisturbed locale as well as its verdant greenery makes it doubly popular ââ¬â especially if you love nature or want a quieter holiday destination.
