Masjid Kariah Telok Kemang is a prominent community mosque located in the coastal district of Port Dickson, Negeri Sembilan. It serves as the primary religious and social hub for the local Muslim population in the Kampung Teluk Kemang area. The building architecture incorporates traditional Malay design elements, including a multi-tiered roof style characteristic of regional mosques. It functions as a centre for daily congregational prayers and community-led events. The mosque grounds are well-maintained and provide a quiet space for worship near the popular Teluk Kemang beach corridor. The facility is actively used for both religious education and community gatherings.
The front entrance gate offers a clear view of the mosque’s facade and traditional architectural features.
