Tanjung Gemuk
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tanjung Gemuk (literaly translated as the "Fat Cape") is a small coastal village near Port Dickson in the Malaysian state of Negeri Sembilan. Its beach is part of Port Dickson's long coastline fronting the Strait of Malacca.
Turtles have been sighted laying eggs on its beach recently. Locals have seen baby turtles reaching out from the sand heading towards the water. This is a new phenomenon in Tanjung Gemuk. After the tsunami and the earthquakes in Indonesia, sea cucumbers were washed up the beach in Tanjung Gemuk; thousands were seen but most of them were dead. Surprised locals combed the beach for the sea cucumbers because they are considered a delicacy.
