Voodooman Supersonic July 24, 2017 Share July 24, 2017 Is the seafood there much cheaper and fresher than Singapore? Just wondering whether worth to drive 1-1.5 hr north for it. Thanks. Don't think it is very much cheaper after factoring in fuel, toll, time, etc but you pay for the freshness. My dad went last week and he was telling me the fishmongers were selling medium sized sea prawns at around RM60-70/kg. Assume you buy 3kg, the saving won't be that significant. Need to buy a lot. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dleodleo Twincharged July 25, 2017 Share July 25, 2017 Most people go to Kukup to stay in one of the over the water "bungalows". Heard not bad but never try before. I went before. Not bad, just relax and eat + visit to a fish farm. Can play fireworks and fly "sky lantern". Usually people will play mahjong and karaoke in the chalet. Children will enjoy exploring the village, watching mad skippers and mini crabs during low tide. They need a minimum of 10 pax in order to book. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
