Weather

The best time to travel to the Perhentian Islands (Pulau Perhentians) is between May and mid-October. From mid-October to February the monsoon rains affect the weather and travel along the eastcoast of Malaysia. During this time most of the island's resorts close down as the fishing boats and small boats used for ferrying visitors to the islands stay in port due the high, rough seas experience along the coastline.
