Pantai Bisikan Bayu - also known as Pantai Dalam Rhu - is just a scenic 50km drive south of Kota Bharu, Kelantan's capital. Around the village of Semerak, gentle breezes rustle the casuarina trees lining the beach producing a hushed sound that, locals say, sounds like a soothing whisper.

Surfing is good at certain times of the year, and wind surfers will find great conditions here during the North-East Monsoon from November to April.

But nothing beats resting in the shade of the tall casuarina trees, staring out to sea, listening to the whispering wind and sipping on a cool coconut.

Are you into shopping? Then buy another piece of luggage because you'll need it when you come here. Virtually the whole brightly lit street called Jalan Temenggong is lined with colourful craft shops selling gold and silver jewellery, textiles, brassware and wood carvings. All items are proudly made by local artisans. But be prepared to bargain and search for the best deals. And don't be afraid to shop around!
