The Best Pulau Perhentian Besar Vacation
Have you ever been to
the Perhentian Islands,Malaysia?
This is a great place to
stay. This is by far the best beach I have ever been. I had such an amazing
time there. The two Perhentian Islands, Perhentian Kecil and Perhentian Besar
are two of the most beautiful islands in the world
Pulau Perhentian
Kecil attracts more travellers as it has cheaper accommodation,
while Pulau Perhentian
Besar is a little more expensive and caters more to families and
those who want to avoid the backpacker party scene.
Me and my family have
visited Perhentian island in September. I am sure most of the people know this
island closes in the rainy season (October-march). We rented our room in the
opposite side of the long beach. However the long beach has everything you want
from good & cheap local restaurants to motels and activities. Believe me
that your first glimpses of the Perhentian islands will be pretty breath-
taking (make sure you ready your camera first). Since you realy need lots
of picture to get the Best result possible.

time there. Although if you prefer a more relaxing, private, and quiet scene,
long beach might not be for you.The owner is a funny, friendly and very helpful
Kuala Besut jetty is the
only getaway to Perhentian Island. Boat transfer from Kuala Besut to the
Perhentian Island available between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm with no fixed departure
times but they could leave as soon as there are enough passengers. For the
return journey, the speed boats are scheduled to leave the Island thrice daily
at 8:00 am, 12:00 noon and 4:00 pm. However, departure and leaving times
for group packages can be arranged.

First, you must arrive at Kuala Besut for you to take a boat to the islands. To get to Kuala Besut, you can arrive from Kelantan or Kuala Terengganu. If you come from Kuala Terengganu, take a bus or taxi to Jerteh then another to Kuala Besut, or a direct bus to Kuala Besut. The journey will take nearly one and half hour.
