Pulau Perhentian @ Terrengganu !

Pulau Perhentian, meaning 'stopover island', is not to be missed. Situated 21km off the coast of Terengganu, it consists of the islands of Pulau Perhentian Besar and Pulau Perhentian Kecil. Covered by unspoilt jungle, windswept palms, powdery white beaches and surrounded by sapphire blue waters, Pulau Perhentian is a sanctuary for fishermen, migratory birds and of course, holiday makers! :D

The islands of Perhentian Besar (Big) and kecil (small) offer amazing snorkeling spots!!! Bring your family and friends snorkeling in this beautiful island! The aquamarine waters with excellent visibility and spectacular underwater reefs make Perhentian the preferred choice of veteran divers. Plunge in and experince the thrill of seeing manta rays, reef sharks and barracudas.Closer to shore, there's the option of watching turtles lay eggs at Three Coves bay, feeding the vibrant coloured fish or just sitting back and enjoying the sun and breeze.

Between the islands of Pulau Perhentian and Pulau Susu Dara are some spectacular dive sites.Sightings of the whale shark,the largets fish in the world,are common.Found close to the equator,whale sharks are harmless to people and totally indifferent to divers

 Isn't it beautiful?

It is currently closed because of Monsoon season, but it will reopen in February, 2013! :)
