Helpfulness
I drove thru Merbok Jetty on my way to Lembah Bujang noticed that it was another beautiful place for sightseeing. On our return, we stopped by to have a close look on this site.
It was on your left before crossing the Merbok Bridge if you are heading to Lembah Bujang. You will strongly feel you want to had a stop on your way back, while you are on you way back, when you are on the bridge again, so quickly step some break, slow down your car, give a right turn signal and thurn to your right.
This local government has spent a lot of money to build this jetty near the mangroves swamp area. The scenery around are beautiful.
