No trip to Desaru is complete without visiting its scenic beach complete with gentle waters and golden sand. If you’re determined to avoid the heat during the day, you can head out in the evenings for a stroll and catch the magnificent sunset views just a few minutes from Anantara Desaru Coast Residences.

Visit a Fishing Village

Another great way to spend an evening just outside of Desaru is to visit the Tanjung Balau Fishing Village, where you can witness local fishermen out for a catch on the docks, as the sun sets.

Watch Fireflies Light Up the Dark

One of the best night-time spectacles you can witness in Desaru is the fascinating light display by the fireflies at the Kota Tinggi Firefly Park. You can hop on a boat and float down the nearby river where you’ll see these mesmerising displays along the river banks.

Shop at the Local Mall

As Desaru’s only shopping mall, the SKS City Mall is a handy community mall visited frequently by locals before heading back to their Desaru residences. In addition to the standard groceries and household items, you can pick a few unique clothes or head to the mall’s bowling alley for some light entertainment in the evening.
