(^50) Kuala Besut – Perhentian Islands - By ferry
In Kuala Besut, the friendly guesthouse owner agreed to store my
bicycle while I visited the nearby islands. The ferry stopped at various
places, but I got off at Longbeach. The village offered budget
accommodation and cheap diving. Oh La La came at a reasonable
price and I booked a dive for the following morning and spent the
rest of the day snorkelling.
The next day, we took a boat ride to a pinnacle about 20 minutes
away. Although the visibility wasn't excellent, the dive was still
incredible, with plenty of marine life along the reef. In the evening, I
joined other divers for a delicious supper on the beach. The following
day, we went on another dive to a cave. The water was so warm that
diving without a wetsuit and only a T-shirt was possible. We returned
just in time for me to catch the return ferry to the mainland.
