$25 to 🇲🇾 Kapas Island, Malaysia !

#asiabudgetchallenge If you’re looking for an uncrowded tropical island, Kapas is it. Just off the coast of Terengganu, it’s small, chill, and incredibly beautiful. I stayed in a rustic beach hut, snorkeled straight from shore, and saw sea turtles every day. There are no big resorts or cars here — just coral reefs, hammocks, and soft white sand. It’s one of the most peaceful places I’ve ever been. 📍Destination: Kapas Island, Malaysia 💸Rough Budget: $25/day (basic hut, boat transfer, food) 💡Top Tip: Bring cash and bug spray — no ATMs and the mozzies love the jungle.
