Islands in Peninsular Malaysia

One of our favourite things about Malaysia is the variety of beautiful islands that we have. Over here in the Peninsular (West Malaysia), most of our most attractive islands are off the East Coast. The best thing is, each island has its own unique features that make them different from the rest. Some are so beautiful that once is never enough.

Pulau Besar

Experience the soft, white sandy beaches of Pulau Besar at only 25 minutes speed boat ride from Mersing Jetty. Clean and comfy resort accommodation with air-conditioned wooden chalets complemented by a wide range of optional island activities.

"Love the wooden chalets and countryside vibes"

Pulau Lang Tengah

Famous for its crystal clear blue sea and fine white sand, Pulau Lang Tengah is also known as The Maldives of Terengganu. It is located at just 40 minutes speed boat ride from Merang Jetty, Terengganu.

"A paradise where you would wish to stay forever"

Pulau Tioman

Pulau Tioman is located at approximately 2 hours ferry ride from Mersing / Tanjung Gemok Jetty. Explore the local island village life and beautiful corals around Pulau Tioman for an unforgettable island vacation.

"Beautiful marine life - a diving and snorkeling haven"

Pulau Aur

Explore the furthest islands from Peninsular Malaysia that guarantees rustic island life experience and untouched underwater marine life. The hike up to Pulau Dayang's peak is something that you won't want to miss.

"Unforgettable island life experience with basic amenities"

Pulau Sibu

Looking for a less crowded island vacation? Don't miss Pulau Sibu, a lesser known island located at 20 minutes speed boat ride from Tanjung Leman Jetty. Enjoy the golden brown private beach with breathtaking sea views facing Pulau Tinggi.

"Amazing experience with the utmost privacy and peace of mind"
