Pulau Perhentian - best time to go

 

The perhentians can get really busy during the summer months of June to August especially at Perhentian Kecil. Sometimes, it gets so crowded, visitors are found sleeping on the beach. Business slows down a little during the late months of the year and resorts are closed for the monsoon season which lasts from mid- November until late February.

Women travellers please take heed!

If you're travelling on your own or with a few fellow women travellers, please try not to take privately arranged snorkelling trips or tours while on the islands. Private boat operators may approach you and offer cheaper rates than what the resort can offer, but it is at your own risk. Best to stick with the resorts and make sure that the boatmen that is providing the service from the resort is validated by the resort itself. There have been several unpleasant accounts of harrassments and indecent proposals.

Thank you. 28th December 2005
