Tour Guide for Nenasi 2009

This unassuming Malay fishing settlement has grown quite a bit since the 1960s but it is still the same 'kampung' Nenasi. The scattering of wooden shop houses that line the road to the beach still stand but most have satellite TV dishes sticking out at an angle to receive the likes of HBO, ESPN, and other channels.
A school house stands right on the beach front - lucky pupils! At the edge of the village the fishing pier is still standing with colourful boats tied to moorings. The brackish water of the river runs placidly. I wonder if it still offers a bounty of udang galah (freshwater king prawn) like it used to decades ago. The place must have been getting regular visitors these days as, surprisingly, there is a motel here - Motel Nenasi. It is very basic but sufficient to offer a place for the night.
What is there in Nenasi? Again, this is another location that offers peace and quite within the quaint setting of a Malay fishing settlement. Kampung Nenasi is halfway between the royal town of Pekan and Kuala Rompin - about 20 kilometres distance. From Kuantan it is about 91 kilometres.

Catatan Pemancing

Sesudah selesai membaiki tayar yang pancit, kami meneruskan perjalanan melalui Kota Tinggi, Mersing, Endau dan Nenasi. Perjalanan mengambil selama 4jam untuk sampai ke destinasi dan akhirnya bila tiba disana, kami terus kebilik kami yang sudah disediakan oleh pemilik Nenasi motel, Ahmad Hj.Othman atau dikenali sebagai Pak Mat Maggi.



Setelah menunaikan solat Jumaat di sebuah masjid disana, Pak Mat mengarahkan kami ke boat pancing beliau tepat pada jam 1530hrs. Boat pancing beliau hanya berdekatan ditepi motel dan sungguh senang kami memindah barang kami kedalam boat.Disini ingin saya mengatakan bahawa Motel Nenasi dan pakej memancing yang disediakan, diuruskan oleh Pak Mat dan isterinya berdua sendiri. Kami angkat "TABIK" untuk Pak Mat dan isterinya yang melayan kami tanpa mengira penat.Kami menggunakan dua boat bagi 12 pemancing.


Setelah itu kami menuju ke Pulau Berhala untuk pancing dasar.
Selain dari ikan karang yang kami dapati malam itu, kami juga diserang sotong. Sungguh mewah malam itu kerana cadat untuk sotong sentiasa mengena. Adegan itu berlarutan sehingga subuh.


Pak Mat memberi arahan untuk bertrolling lagi dan tak sampai setengah jam, rod Fairuz mengena strike lagi. Kali ini permainan ikan agak kasar dan setelah berjaya mengheret ikan ke tepi boat, kami sungguh gembira kerana ikan yang tertewas itu adalah ikan Tenggiri berskala 4 kilo teratas (kami tidak membawa scale).

Villagers find baby whale along beach
PEKAN: Kampung Kuala Nenasi residents were surprised to find a baby whale alive measuring more than 10 metres in length and weighing about five metric tonne lying on a beach in the village here on Monday. Believed to be separated from its parent, the mammal was found during low tide at 7am by fisherman Ab Rahim Sulong, 36. Villagers attempted to keep the whale alive by splashing water on it.
Rescue attempts: The villagers trying to revive the baby whale.Ab Rahim said about 40 villagers tried to push the whale into deeper waters but failed. Shortly before midnight, villagers with the help of a few marine boats pushed the whale to the sea and freed it during high tide. However, on Tuesday morning the whale was found beached about 500m from the spot where it was found on Monday. Despite attempts to cool and push it back into the sea, the whale died.
