It is one of the most beautiful beaches of Kg. Pasir Hantu settlement, just 3.1 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place with very picturesque views, among the mountains. It is partially covered by trees which give natural shade.

It is a spacious coastline with crystal turquoise water and bright sand, so you don't need special shoes. The sharpness of entering the water is quite normal. This beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travellers, relaxation getaway lovers, hikers etc. It is not crowded place during the season.

In addition to swimming and sunbathing, you can also take part in other activities.

20 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Romantic Beach, which has a rating of 8.6.

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.

I strongly suggest bringing your little ones along to this beach - not only is there no admission fee, but it also provides an excellent opportunity to learn about turtles. I've visited a handful of times myself and can attest to its educational value.

Pulau Perhentian Besar boasts the finest beach around. For a brief period, we had the entire beach to ourselves. The sea is a stunning shade of blue and the water is so clear that you can see right through it. While snorkeling, I was able to observe a diverse array of fish, including a Napoleon wrasse, as well as some small sharks and rays. The sand is incredibly fine and ideal for swimming. The optimal time for taking photographs is between 11 and 15, when the sun illuminates the water and creates a mesmerizing turquoise hue.
