Southeast Asia's largest man-made lake (by the commonly cited continental claim), created by the Kenyir Dam completed in 1985 in Hulu Terengganu. Surface area figures diverge sharply between sources — Wikipedia cites ~260,000 ha while Malaysia-Asia travel press cites 38,000 ha; recorded as a conflict. Main gateway is Pengkalan Gawi jetty ~80 km from Kuala Terengganu; houseboat cruises, Lasir and Saok waterfalls and dozens of forested islets define the visit.
見どころ・体験
A Flooded Rainforest of Islands
The 1985 Kenyir Dam impounded the Terengganu river headwaters into an island-studded lake — commonly billed as Southeast Asia's largest man-made lake. Forested ridges became islets (counts from dozens to 340 by differing sources), and drowned valleys leave standing dead trees that make Navigation around the shallows a boatman's skill.
Houseboats and Waterfalls
Pengkalan Gawi (~80 km from Kuala Terengganu) is the working jetty: houseboat charters, waterfall runs to Lasir and Saok, fishing trips for toman and kelah, and cave visits to Bewah and Taat in the Taman Negara borderlands all launch from here.
- Pengkalan Gawi jetty is ~80 km from Kuala Terengganu (roughly 1h15m drive); boats, houseboats and resorts depart from there.Boat charter and houseboat rates operator-dependent; Malaysia-Asia press cites ~RM50/boat short hops (Trip.com Moments)

Sources disagree by an order of magnitude: Wikipedia cites ~260,000 ha; Malaysia-Asia travel press cites 38,000 ha. Both are recorded as a conflict; no single figure is adopted.
How do I get to the lake?
Drive ~80 km from Kuala Terengganu to Pengkalan Gawi jetty, then hire a boat or board a houseboat. Most waterfall and island hops are boat-only.

Houseboat overnights, Lasir/Saok waterfall visits, fishing (season rules apply), kayaking, and exploring the limestone caves (Bewah, Taat) at the park edge.
