Turtle Beach (Terengganu) is located outside the Kg. Pasir Hantu settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the coast of the Perhentian Besar and the correct question is not how to get to Turtle Beach, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.

User reviews

"The beach was simply amazing and had a peaceful atmosphere. We were the only ones there and enjoyed the tranquil vibe. It's a coral beach with some semi-alive corals that were perfect for snorkeling (although we didn't see any turtles, which we were anticipating). Additionally, there was a lot of wildlife both in the water and on the land, as we spotted some water monitors."

Lila Andersson

"Perhentian boasts of a tranquil beach that is truly a sight to behold. The ocean's crystal-clear blue waters are so mesmerizing that they will leave you spellbound. You can engage in a variety of activities here, such as snorkeling, sunbathing, and simply unwinding. You don't have to venture far into the ocean to spot the vibrant fish; they are abundant even near the shore. ..."
