Boat Service To Perhentian Island
There are two ways to get to Perhentian Island. You can either take the boat from Tok Bali or Kuala Besut jetty. However, Kuala Besut is a better getaway than Tok Bali as it is nearer to the Island and has more facilities including frequent boat trips for tourists. Travel time from Kuala Besut to the Island is approximately 40 minutes but 50 minutes from Tok Bali on a speed boat. Whereas the journey from both places to the Island would be much longer for 1 ½ hours and 2 hours respectively on the regular boat.
Speed boats from Kuala Besut to the Island operate between 9:00 am and 4:30 pm with no fixed departure times but they could leave as soon as there are enough passengers. For the return journey, the speed boats are scheduled to leave the Island thrice daily at 8:00 am, 12:00 noon and 4:00 pm. However, departure and leaving times for group packages can be arranged.
Instead of rushing to or upon your return from the Island, you should stop over for the day or an overnight stay at Kuala Besut to see this unique and beautiful coastal town and enjoy sea-food at the fishing village restaurants.
