just back from perhentian last week, going back to perhentian again this may..  The weather niw is awesome..  Long beach area mostly fully occupied , only bubu got lot room available..
*
No wonder Bubu have lots of room because their rooms are most expensive at Long Beach . Example for Standard room with twin sharing ,will cost around RM450 per night plus tax with breakfast and free evening cocktail ( 5pm till 6pm) . The cheapest at long beach you can get RM40 per night but only walk in . smile.gif

Hi, im going to perhentian on early of september. how are the conditions for diving in that period of the year? is it still nice with good visibility? are the trigger-fish breeding/aggressive?
*
Its good timing to visit Perhentian Island during early September with hot weather and blue sky. Good visibility really hard to say because too many factor such Weather , Rain and Low Tide .I just spoke with my Dive Master, trigger Fish breeding during August .Please avoid to dive at Tanjung Basi because lots of trigger fish here.Stay away around 3-4 meter from this fish.If the fish attack you,use your fin tongue.gif

Perhentian Kecil Island ,more backpackers stayed here because rooms are cheaper compare Perhentian Besar Island...but bit poor in terms of cleanliness and services.But now days,the food price bit expensive for both islands. During Night you can go to Long beach for dinner and open disco.

Samurai,

Mind to share what are the difference between Besar and Kecil?
And what are the recommended resort with average comfort, like Laguna Redang? Budget RM450 with snorkeling package.

Is there any shark point / sea turtle / sunset discovery package?
*
Perhentian Besar are best resort located here like Perhentian Island Resort , Coral View Island Resort ,Newcocohuts Chalet ,Abdul Chalet ,Cozy Chalet ,Mama Chalet ,The Reef .Watercolours Resort ,Arawana Perhentian Eco Resort ,Flora Bay Resort , Fauna Chalet ,Samudra Chalet and Alu alu chalet.The highest room rates around RM400- RM600 per night.Among the best snorkeling site is Teluk Pauh , Turtle Bay , Marine Park ,Shark Point , Tiga Ruang , Teluk Kekek .You might lucky to see a group of turtle eat sea grass at front Perhentian Island Resort during morning and afternoon. Air Berani or Spring water are located at Teluk Dalam area .Jungle trekking are connecting from Perhentian Island Resort to Arawana Perhentian Eco resort,journey take 1 hour.

For Perhentian Kecil island most of backpackers stay here because here offering low room rate per night around RM30 basic room or dormitory with bed and fan.For Air conditions room,range budget around RM150 per night attached bathroom.Major tourist spot here stay at Aur Bay and Long Beach . Aur Bay are the best spot for Sunset and DLagoon Chalet are the spot for Sunrise. Only Lighthouse snorkeling site are the nearest to Perhentian kecil Island.Pathway are provide surrounding Perhentian Kecil Island,its use for Perhentian Island Marathon Challenge for every year event. You can take walk around the islands within 5-6 hour ,starting point from Long Beach > Aur Bay > Maya > Pasir Petani > Fishing Village > Long Beach..You can spend your time at Romantic Beach..less people here.Take time to go Hybrid Station which take 1 hour..don't forget to bring 1.5L Mineral water.. most beautiful panorama here..

Cross both islands by small boat will charge you around RM15 minimum per person or more depends which location.

Laguna Redang = Perhentian Island Resort or Coral View Island Resort...i think so! smile.gif

For shark point and Turtle Bay are included with the package.

Range budget for twin sharing around RM450 to RM600 per person based on type accommodation and package.
