Now It's time for places 6th, and 5th. Enjoy!
6th PLACE.
Pulau Perhentian Kecil, Malaysia
Pulau Perhentian Kecil, Malaysia
If you’re a beach bum you’ve
probably already heard of, or visited, or fallen in love with, Malaysia’s
Perhentian Islands. The two main islands are the backpacker-happy Pulau
Perhentian Kecil (Small Perhentian Island), and Pulau Perhentian Besar (Big
Perhentian Island), which has slightly more expensive accommodation.
Dive in the crystal blue waters
off Pulau Perhentian Kecil and you’re almost guaranteed to swim with sea
turtles and small sharks.
Hang around the island’s
beach-side restaurants at 5 p.m. to watch fishermen bring in the day’s catch
and haggle with restaurant owners.
5th
PLACE.
Tulum,
Mexico
There aren’t many places in the
world where people can swim in the shadow of ancient Mayan ruins. Mexico’s
Tulum is one of them. Tulum is famous for being the home of a Mayan
archeological ruin that teeters on the edge of a sheer cliff. Beneath it, baby
powder sands and jade green waters glisten.
The dramatically situated ruin
makes it one of the three big Mayan sites for tourists, the other two being
Chichen Itza in Mexico and Tikal in Guatemala.
The Yucatan's turquoise cenotes
and excellent diving are also tourist draws.
To the next time!
