Cherating is a beach town in Pahang, Malaysia, located about 47 km north of Kuantan. It is the location of Asia’s first Club Mediterranee ("Club Med").Cherating also houses a cultural village and a turtle sanctuary. The turtles lay their eggs between July and August.Cherating is one of the wettest place in Malaysia with heavy rainfall all year round. 2010 is the driest but still exceeds 2000mm of rain while 2011 is the wettest by far as recorded by Department Of Irrigation & Drainage Malaysia.
Cherating is the perfect antidote to frantic city life. Here, wide gently sloping sandy beaches, lined with casuarinas trees, extend as far as the eye can see. The main Cherating beach is the location of many hotels, reboots and chalets, catering for all budgets.
First popularized by the backpackers, Cherating is now popular with many visitors who came to enjoy the beach, sea and sun. Handicraft shops and cultural establishments have been established, and many visitors enjoy making their own batiks. Batik painting and pandanus handicrafts remain popular souvenirs from Cherating.
