RainForest Camping Perhentian Island

This small campsite sits on the Rainforest Beach (also known as Sandy Coral Beach), next to Mira Beach at the Perhentian Kecil Island in Terengganu, one of the east coast state in Peninsular Malaysia. Campers need to take a 30-minute ferry ride from Besut Jetty to arrive there. There is also secluded private beach and guests can enjoy meals at the restaurant and drinks at the bar built on the headland at the seafront. The area is fantastic for snorkelling and diving.

The main feature of the campsite is camping in the rainforest beach while at the same time enjoying the quieter side of the island. A five-minute uphill walk is required into the forest. The tents are elevated, and the campsite is provided with basic amenities, including toilets and showers. There are a mattress, pillows and bed-sheet but no fan, blanket, towel or sleeping bag in the tent. Guests may also try hammock camping or take a stroll along the seafront to the other popular places like Coral Bay and Long Beach. Other activities in the surroundings include swimming, watching the sunset and relaxing while spotting shoals of fish darting around besides stingrays and reef sharks!
