Car
If you are driving to Bubbles Dive Resort, start by heading towards Kuala Besut. From Kuala Terengganu, take the E8 highway towards Kota Bharu. After approximately 70 km, take the exit towards Kuala Besut. Once in Kuala Besut, follow the signs directing you to the jetty where you can catch a boat to Perhentian Islands. There is usually a parking area near the jetty where you can leave your car for a small fee, typically around RM 10-20 per day. The boat ride from the jetty to the resort will take about 30 minutes.
Public Transportation (Bus)
To reach Bubbles Dive Resort by public transportation, board a bus from Kuala Lumpur to Kuala Besut. Several bus companies operate this route, and tickets typically cost between RM 35-50. Once you arrive in Kuala Besut, you can either walk or take a short taxi ride to the jetty. From the jetty, purchase a boat ticket to Perhentian Islands. The boat ride lasts around 30 minutes. Make sure to check the boat schedules as they may vary depending on the time of year.
Boat
Once you arrive at the Kuala Besut jetty, look for the boat services that go to Perhentian Islands. There are generally two types of boats: speedboats and traditional boats. Speedboats are faster but may be slightly more expensive, costing around RM 70-80 per person for a round trip. Traditional boats are more economical, usually around RM 30-40 per person, but take longer. Make sure to confirm the schedule for the last boat back to the mainland to avoid being stranded.
