Perhentian Islands, Malaysia
Situated about 10 nautical miles off the northeaster cost of West Malaysia in the Terengganu, state, the Perhentian Islands are about 40 miles south of the Thai border (another great beach destination). The Perhentian Islands composed of two main islands called Perhentian Besar and Perhentian Kecil
The tropical beaches along the pair of Malaysian islands called the Perhentians feature a postcard-perfect scenario complete with palm trees, white sand, warm climate, and crystal blue sea waters. Marine life—the likes of jelly fish, sea turtles, reef fish, and corals—is abundant, so you get the most out of any snorkeling and diving adventures.
The islands are a part of the Pulau Redang National Marine Park, which makes it illegal to fish, collect coral and litter. The name of the island means “stopping point” which is something travelers will want to do when coming to this part of the world. The island is sparsely populated and is widely known as a tourist area. Other activities on the island include camping, canoeing, taking a ride on the banana boats and trekking through the jungle. Some lucky visitors will even be able to spot monitor lizards and monkeys. The island is nearly deserted during the monsoon season so the best times to visit are between June and October.
