Perhentian Islands, May 2023

A brief trip for some leisure diving around Perhentian Islands, staying at one of our favourite Dive Resorts on the Big Perhentian Island: "Bubbles".
Bubbles young conservation team is passionate about turtle conservation, and here you can read more about their activities:

Leisure diving it truly was, as in 2 morning/noon dives followed by lazy afternoons in a hammock or sun-chair.. 😄
Visibility varied between poor and moderate, so didn't get all the video shots I hoped for, but this is nevertheless a beautiful area to stay and dive in. Not to mention the easy-going wildlife encounters you can have nearby, or even at, the resort.
Hope you enjoy the video!
Cheers

    Season is May-Sep. Outside of that, the monsoon weather often brings too much wind, swell and/or rain, making it less suitable to visit. Many resorts are also closed during the rainy season and only open Apr/May - Sep/Oct. If you plan to visit, best to check directly with the resort you're aiming for. Good Luck!

    Hi there, it was at Batu Layar, where you'll find quite a lot of nice hard corals. Enjoy your dives!
