Marang is a gate way to Pulau Kapas or Kapas Island. This island is the closest oceanic island to the mainland. You can day visit this island as it is only 20 minute-drive by speed boat.
The jetty is constructed in the river (not in the sea) and it has a few travel agents or boat operators to bring you to the island. The fare per person is around RM20.00 (single fare). There is a beautiful park adjacent to the jetty and you can sit under the wakaf while waiting for the boat. I found this area is very scenic.
The sign board shows where is the jetty.

If you are interested to be at this jetty, you can take a road from Kuala Terengganu to Marang and when you reached the Marang traffic light, turn to the left. You will see this jetty. It is only 15km from city centre of Kuala Terengganu. Happy travelling.
