Hey guys~ I recently went to Perhentian Island in Malaysia, and it was breathtakingly beautiful! 😍 I couldn't wait to share this surprise with you when I got back! ✨ 📍Location: Perhentian Island, Besut District, Malaysia 🚀Transportation: From Kuala Lumpur, you can fly to Kota Bharu Airport in Kelantan, then drive to Kuala Besut Jetty, and take a 30-45 minute boat ride to Perhentian Island! 🚢 Remember, it's not a good time to go to sea from October to February due to the monsoon, and the best time to visit is from April to August! ☀️ 🏨Accommodation: There are a variety of accommodations on Perhentian Island, from family-run inns for MYR 20 per night to luxury resorts for MYR 500! 🏡 I personally love Perhentian Island Resort, with its hundreds of meters of fine sand, walking barefoot on it is like walking on a carpet, super comfortable! 👣 🍽️Food: Most of the restaurants on the island serve Malaysian and Thai cuisine, which is affordable and delicious! 🍲 Especially the restaurant next to Perhentian Island Resort, which only offers buffets, but with a wide variety of dishes, you will definitely be satisfied! 🍴 🏊‍♂️Snorkeling: Perhentian Island is a Malaysian National Marine Park, with crystal clear waters and a rich variety of coral reefs and marine life! 🐠 Snorkeling trips are affordable, with short trips costing only MYR 40 per person, including 3 dive sites, where you can see turtles, baby sharks, and more! 🐢 🚶‍♀️Hiking: There are many mountain trails on the island, and you will see many large lizards along the way, don't be afraid, they are more afraid of you! 🦎 There are also many beautiful views along the way, which will definitely make your trip worthwhile! 💡Tips: Be sure to spray mosquito repellent at night, or you'll be questioning your life! 🦟 Bring your own snorkeling gear, wear a jellyfish suit and rubber-soled snorkeling shoes to avoid being scratched by coral! 👟 Bring enough cash, there are no ATMs on the island, and there are very few places to use credit cards! 💰 There is no alcohol on the island except in some restaurants and bars, so if you like to drink, remember to bring it from Kuala Lumpur! 🍻

The ocean is beyond beautiful!!! Water is clear even near the beach, you can see everything under the water. Only things I would like to recommend to pre-book your hotel. You can't get the room if you didn't book and walk in. Almost everything is expensive. Public toilet have to pay 2 Riggits . I love this Island, wants to come back again and again but there is so many Islands at Perhentian. The long island is always full coz they do have bar and nightclub. can't brings Pork to those Island.There are many activities package you can buy like snorkeling, turtles island tour and so on. There are a lot of near by islands. We stayed at this Long Island beach. Night life also have a lot of fun. Don't forget to bring your sunscreen.

What more could you ask ? A wonderful weekend with : A bunch of work friends aka colleagues 👯‍♂️👯‍♀️ Crystal clear water 🌊 Swaying coconut tree 🌴 Fine sand beaches 🏖️ Breathtaking marine lift 🐬 To appreciate our hard work in past 1 year, company decided to bring us to Perhentian island - a beautiful beach destination in Malaysia, located off the Terengganu coast. #teambuilding #perhentianisland

Perhentian Island Resort offers a holiday paradise for families to sunbathe under the sun, sand and sea. It is a resort in Terengganu that is ideal for swimming, snorkeling or scuba diving, with its strategic location facing a bay rich in coral. Perhentian Island Resort is also home to one of nature's most magical displays, the giant green turtle that lays its eggs on the beach. There are also forest trails nearby where you can take a walk or a more strenuous trek up the hills and explore the lush greenery. During your adventure, you might come across a harmless bengal lizard or one of the several Lutong monkeys that inhabit the area. #perhentian #perhentianisland #islandstaycation #resortstyle #beachlife
