Here are some of the Malaysian Islands: Where to Go and What To do?

East Coast Islands (Best March -October)

Kecil and Besar (Perhentian Islands)

The Perhentians is known to have the crystal-clear waters and a well-developed underwater world- perfect in the eyes of both beginners and experienced snorkelers and divers. Perhentian Kecil is very vibrant with beach bars and a lively night life and its counterpart, Perhentian Besar, is more family and couple centred. Through guided tours by operators such as Go Kite Travel, you will have a hassle-free transportation, snorkeling tours, and information on the best marine conservation locations. Perhentians are particularly favoured by those who would like cheap but picturesque beach holiday enjoying the finest that the Malaysian Islands can offer.

Redang Island

Redang is a little more luxurious and has some of the most spectacular coral gardens in Malaysia with luxurious beach front resorts. Underwater photography lovers will have a perfect time on the island, as it has the clearest waters and a large amount of marine life. The coastal line is covered with white sandy beaches that make the environment memorable during walks and sunset scenic experience. Go Kite Travel has the capacity to assist the travelers in booking the best beachfront rooms and snorkeling tours, and Redang will be a marvellous option of the ones who seek comfort and a gorgeous scenery.

Tioman Island

Tioman island is nestled in the midst of the green rainforests and combines jungle adventure and ocean activities. There are hiking trails that lead to cascading waterfalls and the offshore dive sites are full of turtles, reef sharks and colorful corals. It is not as busy as Redang and the Perhentians, and looks so attractive as an idea of a honeymoon place or a trip taken by the person who wants a more private retreat. The lovely villages and the green resorts help Tioman to maintain a peaceful and natural ambience.

Kapas Island

Kapas is a small and relatively well-secreted oasis, an uncrowded relaxing retreat. It has shallow and warm waters that are perfect to swim and those who are new to snorkeling. Kapas is ideal to the traveler who likes nothing fancy- picture book in lap afternoons and quiet beaches. It is the more subdued side of the Malaysian Islands, which is attractive to those who wish to have no contact whatsoever.

West Coast Islands (Best December -April)

Langkawi

The most renowned tourist destination in Malaysia is perhaps Langkawi which is quite a relaxing place with a lot of adventure. Tourists can take the legendary SkyCab into the Sky Bridge and enjoy addictive views, visit green mangrove forests, or have a rest area with duty-free shopping areas. Langkawi has both high and low-end hotels as well as five-star resorts, and there are options that are very affordable to all types of budgets. It is among the simplest spots to Explore Malaysia Holiday Packages, and this is due to the excellent flight connections and attractions all year round. Langkawi is typically featured in the itineraries of Go Kite Travel because it is diverse and can attract many visitors.

Pangkor Island

Pangkor is less active than Langkawi and is recommended to people who want to relax and appreciate cultural heritage in the beach. Among the best attractions here is Coral Beach, the historic Dutch Fort and quaint fishing villages where you can have a taste of local and fresh seafood. The slower pace in Pangkor gives the tourist an opportunity to experience the real island life. In the tailor-made packages at Go Kite Travel, the tourists will be able to explore both the coast and culture in addition to Pangkor by combining it with other neighbouring destinations.

Borneo (Sarawak and Sabah) Islands

Bintutan Archipelago (Bintutan, Sarawak)

Thrill seekers come to visit the area in order to explore the underworld wonders. Proper planning with Go Kite Travel, divers will be able to spend their time on well-arranged trips that will consist of permits, accommodation and transfer to boats.

Mantanani Islands

Its turquoise waters are also perfect in diving and viewing sea animals like dugongs. Creamy sandy beaches and tranquil environment make it an excellent choice among honeymooners and people who prefer to relax in the nature.

Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park (Manukan, Sapi)

This marine park is only a few minutes out of Kota Kinabalu, which is why it is easily approachable by families because of the island-hopping offered with well-maintained facilities.
