Second pit stop detour left out of highway, to the Cheneh Petrol Station for refueling. Takut tak ada petrol stesen di Highway LPT2.
Third pit stop and change of driver at R&R Kijal. Rupanya ada Petron mini petrol stesen di sini.
Kami ke Perhentian pada 5/5/2018, lima hari sebelum Pilihan Raya Umum ke 14 (General Election GE14). Jadi meriahlah dengan poster-poster parti. Big billboard gambar Najib Razak terpampang di sepanjang highway LPT2 kedua-dua arah, setiap satu kilometer. Berapalah kos kempen dan poster ni?, berbilion!!. Meluat tengok, patutlah rakyat Terengganu menolak BN.Gambar bawah; Jambatan Kuala Besut.
Jeti Kuala Besut - Pintu ketibaan, dan Kaunter Tiket RM5.00 (warganegara) RM30 (foreigner), Caj Pemuliharaan Taman Laut.
Sampai di Kuala Besut pada jam 12:30 tengah hari. Semasa kereta kami berpusing2 mencari tempat parking, seorang lelaki bermotorsikal menegur: "Nak ke Perhentian ke?, dah ada ticket ke?".
Kami kata tak de, lalu dia mengajak ke pejabat pelancongannya - Aina Holidays Sdn. Bhd.
Bendera PAS dan BN. BN kalah! haha!. Rakyat mahu perubahan.
Harga tiket RM70 seorang pergi-balik. Sementara menunggu bot tiba, kami makan di gerai berhampiran jeti

My first time in a high power speedboat. Although the weather was good, and no big waves, the ride was bumpy. Luckily I sat at the back near the captain, so I didn't feel that bad. I saw no one had seasick or vomiting.
Life jackets are provided enough for every passengers, mandatory to wear it.
