Slideshow image
Previous · Pause · Next · Play
"Tasik Kenyir is one of the largest man-made lakes in the world. With over 40 species of fish, it draws anglers from as far as Singapore."

Formed from the Kenyir Dam in 1985, Tasik Kenyir (Kenyir Lake) is one of the largest man-made lakes in the world. It contains approximately 23.6 million cubic metres of water and covers an area of 369 square kilometres.

There are magnificent waterfalls in the area such as the Lasir and Sauk waterfalls. The surrounding areas are home to an enormous variety of plants and animals. And with over 40 species of fish including Baung, Arowana, Sebarau, Toman and Kelah, the lake has also become something of an angler's paradise, with enthusiasts coming from as far as Kuala Lumpur and Singapore.

Accommodation ranges from houseboats and floating chalets to full-facility lakeside resorts. The lake is especially captivating at night, with dead trees sticking out from the still lakes, creating their own mysterious beauty.

For more information, please contact the Tasik Kenyir Tourist Information Centre at +609-6267788.
