Highlights: Diving Snorkeling
What you get
Pulau Kapas means "Cotton Island" in Malay and this peculiar name is attributed to the cotton-like beaches of the island. Walk along the beaches and with the soft white sand under your feet, you would feel like you are working on a bed of cotton.
If you looking for an idyllic tropical island holiday – swaying palm trees, virgin jungle, turquoise water gently lapping at the beach and colourful coral reefs just off the shore - Pulau Kapas is your answer.
Kapas Island is excellent for snorkelling as there is an abundance of corals and other marine life, visibility is good and the water is shallow and calm. As the coral is mainly around the rocky edges of the island, you can still go swimming off the beautiful beaches, even at low tide.
This picturesque getaway is less than 5 km from the mainland and can be reached within 15 minutes by speedboat from the coastal fishing village of Marang, Trengganu, East Coast of Malaysia.
