The Perhentian Islands (Pulau Perhentian in Malay) lie approximately 10 nautical miles (19km) off the northeastern coast of West Malaysia in
the state of Terengganu.
The two main islands are Perhentian Besar ("Large Perhentian") and
Perhentian Kecil ("Small Perhentian"). The small, uninhabited
islands of Susu Dara (Virgin Milk), Serengeh and Rawa lie off Kecil.
