The island is so picturesque with its stunning beach, lush jungle and clear waters – it’s worth taking the time to hike up to the hilltop view to witness the amazing views over the South China Sea. Since the island is tiny, you can get everywhere on foot and really two nights is more than enough time to explore it all. Our kids had great fun zipping down the big orange slide and the smaller blue one, splashing into the sea and playing on the beach.

With its pristine beaches and turquoise waters, Pulau Besar is the perfect place for both relaxation and exploration. Walking on the soft sand and feeling the ocean breeze is a truly delightful experience. Snorkeling offers a glimpse of vibrant underwater life, with schools of colorful fish swimming among the corals. Scuba diving is a truly captivating experience, allowing you to experience the ocean's majesty and mystery up close. This is a perfect paradise for sun and sea lovers.

There is a popular restaurant (KFC) here. The surrounding atmosphere is very beautiful and attractive because this KFC restaurant is located by the sea. You can just enjoy the meal while looking at the beauty of the beach.

The price was a bit high, but the scenery was beautiful. Unfortunately, there was no refund or cancellation policy. Because the driver deliberately led us on a wrong route, we were delayed and couldn't reach the top for the view. The children were very disappointed, and the driver refused to compensate us. We had to buy new tickets ourselves and visit the next day.

The aquarium is located in a central area of Kuala Lumpur and is one of the most beautiful aquariums I have ever visited. The wide variety of aquatic species gives it a special charm, as does the underwater tunnel. And if you time your visit right, you can catch the feeding sessions for various species. I recommend it to everyone!
