Escape to Serenity at Fauna Beach Chalet

Getting There

• Car

  If you're driving, head to the Kuala Besut Jetty, which is the main departure point for ferries to the Perhentian Islands. From Kuala Lumpur, take the E8 highway to Kota Bharu, then follow signs to Kuala Besut. The journey takes about 8 hours. Once at the jetty, park your car in one of the designated parking areas (parking costs approximately RM10-15 per day). Purchase a ferry ticket to Pulau Perhentian Besar from one of the ticket counters at the jetty. The ferry ride takes about 30-45 minutes.

• Public Transportation

  To reach the Perhentian Islands via public transport, you can take a bus from Kuala Lumpur to Kuala Besut. Buses depart regularly from various bus terminals, such as Terminal Bersepadu Selatan (TBS). The bus journey takes approximately 10-12 hours, costing around RM35-50. Once you arrive in Kuala Besut, head to the jetty and buy a ferry ticket to Pulau Perhentian Besar. The ferry ride takes about 30-45 minutes.

• Ferry

  After arriving at Pulau Perhentian Besar via ferry, make your way to Fauna Beach Chalet located at No. 176, Pantai Teluk Dalam. You can walk from the jetty area, which is about a 15-20 minute stroll along the beach. If you're carrying heavy luggage or prefer not to walk, you can hire a water taxi from the jetty to take you directly to the chalet for a small fee, typically around RM20-30.
