Climate

A tropical climate, Terengganu has warm weather throughout the year. The driest months are between February and August, this is also when the temperatures are warmest. Fairly hot and humid, the sea breeze from the South China Sea and lush forest moderates the humidity. The most desirable times to visit are in the summer months of the UK, with hot temperatures and more sunny days.

Getting There

To reach the Terengganu region, fly from London Heathrow to Kuala Lumpur International (12 hours 40 minutes). From here, take a short flight to Kuala Terengganu Airport (55 minutes).

Marine Life

A paradise for marine life, the ocean around Terengganu is home to some 3000 species of vibrant fish and coral reefs. Snorkelling and scuba-diving are essential in this stunning tropical region, with pristine waters across the islands and untouched coves perfect for exploring. For snorkelling, take a canoe and head to tranquil havens, brimming with the most astonishing marine life. Baby sharks and turtles, along with an abundance of tropical fish, await you just moments from the shores of Terengganu, in a breath taking underwater world that creates everlasting memories.

Marine Life
Fireflies

Home to the largest concentration of fireflies in Malaysia, the Firefly Sanctuary remains a tranquil and unspoiled natural landscape. Take a night-time trip on a gentle rowing boat along the Yak Yah river to see the magical fireflies, experiencing their breath taking displays flickering around you amongst the mangrove swamps. One of Malaysia’s most dazzling natural wonders, the extraordinary displays are an unforgettable experience.

Fireflies
The Beach

The ultimate beach destination, the islands scattered off the coast of Malaysia’s mainland are home to some of the most stunning beaches on earth. The islands are dotted with pristine, white sandy beaches and the turquoise waters are teeming with phenomenal marine life. Beach hopping is an ideal way to explore the glorious coastlines around the islands- with so much to offer from family-friendly areas and beach parties, to tranquil havens of paradise that feel miles away from the rest of the world. A once-in-a-lifetime beach experience is offered on Pulau Perhentian, at Turtle Sanctuary Beach. Bathe under the bright sunshine, unwinding on the soft golden sands- in a haven for Green and Hawksbill Turtles. Take a dip in the crystal-clear waters to catch a sight of them gliding through the sea.

The Beach
Masjid Terapung

Known as the ‘Floating Mosque’, this is heralded as an icon of Kuala Terengganu. Constructed on a platform over a lake, this unique design is an impressive combination of contemporary Malay and Moorish architecture- its bright marble surfaces, adorned with mosaics is a spectacular feat. Hop on a river cruise to enjoy the serene beauty around the bustling Kuala Terengganu and enjoy the grandeur of the mosque as you get closer. The enchanting mosque is the perfect photo opportunity- visit as the sun is setting in the backdrop for the most captivating sight.
