Exploring Malaysia Series: Perhentian Island!

Without a doubt, the Perhentian Islands were Malaysian favourite stop.

They’re the kind of place where you come for a few days and stay for a week, where barefoot living is easily embraced and all concept of time is quickly lost, where you can fill your days with adventure, be it exploring the jungle, diving a sunken wreck or kayaking between secluded coves, or let the hours slip away in a state of blissful relaxation doing nothing more than drifting between powdery white sand and the calm crystal waters that wrap around the islands.

The bigger island, Perhentian Besar, has a very different feel to Kecil and instead of small villages where all the main services are concentrated, it tends to be just single resorts peppered along the coastline. Many have spectacular private beaches or are within easy reach of the offshore reef.

If you’re here for a romantic getaway or are after an all-inclusive experience, this is probably the best option for you.
