Getting there

Boat

To reach Turtle Beach, start by making your way to the nearest jetty on Pulau Perhentian Kecil. If you're staying at a hotel or resort, check if they offer a shuttle service to the jetty. Otherwise, you can walk to the jetty from your accommodation. The main jetty is located in Kuala Besut on the mainland, but since you're already on the island, just locate the nearest beach that has boat service. Look for local boat operators who can take you to Turtle Beach. The boat ride typically takes about 15-20 minutes and the fare is usually around RM 30-50 per person. Make sure to negotiate the price if required.

Walking

Once you arrive at Turtle Beach, you can explore the area on foot. Turtle Beach is known for its scenic views and tranquility. From the landing point, head towards the beach, which is a short walk of approximately 5-10 minutes, depending on where your boat drops you off. The beach is surrounded by lush greenery, so enjoy the natural beauty as you stroll along the paths leading to the beach.
