where fresh seafood and ocean views come together in a casual, open-air setting

#tesaruonbudget Nelayan Seafood by the Coast delivers a laid-back yet satisfying dining experience along the Desaru Coast, where fresh seafood and ocean views come together in a casual, open-air setting. Located within the Tunamaya Beach & Spa Resort, the restaurant is known for sourcing its catch locally, offering dishes like salted egg crab, golden silk prawns, and steamed siakap that highlight the freshness of the ingredients. Guests often enjoy the spacious indoor and outdoor seating, which makes it a great spot for families and groups. While the food generally receives praise for its flavor and variety, some diners have noted inconsistencies in pricing and service, particularly during busy hours. Still, the overall ambiance and the chance to enjoy seafood with a sea breeze make Nelayan a memorable stop for those exploring Bandar Penawar’s coastal flavors
