Hiking in Perhentian: More Than Just Beaches

When people think of Perhentian Island, they picture turquoise waters, sandy beaches, and snorkeling with sea turtles — but here’s a secret worth hiking for: the island’s jungle trails are just as magical as its coastline. 🌿✨ Tucked between the palm trees and coral reefs are lush rainforest paths, hidden viewpoints, and wild encounters that most visitors completely miss. Want a new perspective on paradise? Lace up and head into the green. 🔥 Top Trails to Explore: 🥾 Long Beach to Coral Bay – A short but scenic jungle path connecting the best of both worlds. Keep an eye out for monitor lizards and cheeky monkeys! ⛰️ Windmill Point (Perhentian Kecil) – A moderate hike that rewards you with breathtaking panoramic views of the ocean from above. The wind in your hair, the sea at your feet — pure freedom. 🌿 Rainforest Trails on Perhentian Besar – Quiet, untouched, and full of surprises. Birds, butterflies, and the occasional monitor lizard will be your trail companions. #summervacay #beachlife #hiking #perhentianisland
