Challenge Yourself to Kayaking

To see more of the island, consider renting a kayak which will allow you to traverse into secluded lagoons and spots that can’t be traveled to on foot. You will see Perhentian island from a whole new point of view. 

Turtle Watch

We all know that turtles are a protected species and how difficult it can get to protect them. Take this opportunity to wind down, chill on the beach and watch these sea creatures wade their way in and out of the sea. Keep in mind not to approach the gentle creature and enjoy their nature from a distance.

Get in Touch With Nature Via Trekking

If you’re feeling adventurous, strap on your hiking shoes and get on your way to lush trails on the island. You will find all kinds of fauna and flora living their best lives!

Stay in a Treehouse

Ditch your regular hotel and luxury chalet accommodation and opt for a night in a treehouse! It’ll bring back loads of childhood memories and if you didn’t have a treehouse growing up, this is your chance to finally realize those dreams!
