The beach is quite a story and offers everything that you want from a worldclass without to many tourists disturbing your peace. This is not a place were you party alot, for that you can find better ones in Thailand or so. This is a place were you wander into yourself and enjoy a truly paradise experience.
The food are so so, and the accomondation is not really top class, but thats alright as the atmosphere is calm and friendly. Don’t miss out the snorkelling tours were you can swim with thousands of colorful fishes, best place so far in Malaysia for doing that even if the corals has been seen better at other places.
If you only can afford one island in Malaysia, Perhentian would be it.
