Perhentian Islands are a paradise for every traveler. This place has everything you may looking for to stop by few days. They just not have any ATM on the island so make sure to have money on you before taking the boat.

Perfect paradise for divers, amazing beaches party and peaceful people. Definitely, if you want to experiment what could be basically living on the beach for few days, go for it!

For once, I took more videos than pictures, so there is two sunrise video (during yoga classes). I would like to share theses wonderful moments with you. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did.

Where to stay in Perhentian Island :

The Oh La La guesthouse is well reputed for the quality of stay. They provide electricity almost 24/24 each day but they do not have wifi. If you wanna dive they gives you discount on the accommodation price. The team is welcoming and really serious. They do not accept booking in advance and they are ideally located at the middle of longbeach on the small island. And the best is that you have the sea view when you go out of your room. The price for a night is around 40 RM, less if you dive : 25 RM.

Some of my friends decided to stay at Matahari Chalets and Restaurant. They enjoyed their stay. The restaurant is really good and it seems that they provide a free breakfast on the morning. But the chalets, Bungalows and dorms are behind other restaurants so you do not have the beach view.

What you must not miss in Longbeach :

The beach bar - you can not miss it after the sunset. A fire show will catch your attention each night.

The chill out reggae bar (and wifi) - Just be aware that they do not serve alcohol.

The Oh La La beef Burger (and they have beers and drinks)

The Yoga Class on the beach with the sunrise at 6:30 am each morning. If you are still sleeping because of the party the night before, you can join the evening class at 6 pm. The couple who provide the Yoga lesson are really nice and helpful. They adapt the lessons and often focus on deep breathing exercises to increase you abilities to dive. I recommend it.

The romantic beach : you reach it by walking 15 minutes from Longbeach. This is a really nice place, quiet and perfect for snorkeling.
