Romantic Beach of Perhentian Kecil Island

Romantic Beach as the name goes is one very beautiful and secluded beach
which will promise an unforgettable romance of a life time,
that's provided you bring your partner along.
Situated on the western side of the Perhentian Kecil Island and
is accessible by taxi boat or by a 30 minutes walk.









The 30 minutes walk from Long Beach in Pulau Perhentian Kecil
first through the path leading to Coral Bay and then turning right when you see the electrical pole number 50 up the 100m hill where the two Wind Turbine are located and then after going around the fence and passing the peak with a breathtaking view of Telok Kerma and its jetty,continue walking along the path down the hill.

The elevation of the climb.


This is where to take the turn and a long uphill walk from pole 50 to 1.


and follow the poles up the hill,notice the soil erosion is quite bad here.


A signboard at the fence of the Wind Turbine.


The collapsed jetty and Telok Kerma,a diving spot at the far end.


The fragile ecosystem of this small island looks threatened
with soil erosion cause by the access road to the Wind Turbine from the Romantic Beach below
and corals will choke and die when this soil flows down to the beach as muddy water.



A path to D lagoon for those who prefer walking than the 5 minutes taxi boat.




This was the landing area for the barge for the Wind Turbine and Solar panels installation work.

  11. I can see that some solar panels along the staircase to the collapsed jetty are missing. Perhaps they didnt maintain this facility properly. What a waste.

    1. de engineur,
      First world facilities but third world mentality,
      some of the panels were blown off by strong wind
      and i heard the wind turbines were damaged by lightning strike.
