Beautiful Beaches, Local Experiences And More On Pangkor Island

dimanche 12 novembre 2023 • Durée 18:31

Looking for a beautiful island in Malaysia that will give you a local experience? Located off the west coast of Malaysia in the state of Perak, Pangkor Island often sits in the shadow of other more developed islands like Penang and Langkawi which are located nearby. However, Pangkor Island offers its own unique experience for visitors. It’s a great place to have a relaxing getaway with fabulous beaches. It’s a smaller island with a population of around 20,000 people which can only be accessed by ferry. This gives the island a feeling of isolation and community. But despite this relative isolation, I found Pangkor to be surprisingly lively with a local feeling missing on most Malaysian islands I have visited. This is where people live and work and not just come to lie on a beach (although the latter is very easy to do!). I really loved this local feel. Many people visit for the hornbills and stunning beaches, but there are more things you can add to your itinerary. In this episode, I’m discussing why you should visit Pangkor Island, what to do when you’re there and where to stay. There’s not all that much information about Pangkor Island out there, and I am excited to share my experiences with you. By the end of this episode, you’ll be all set for a visit to Pangkor Island.

Port Dickson - Best Beach Area Near Kuala Lumpur

vendredi 6 octobre 2023 • Durée 13:27

Looking for a beach area close to Kuala Lumpur where you can have a great beach break? Or want a stopover location when flying into Kuala Lumpur International Airport? Port Dickson (or PD to locals) is a coastal resort town about 90 kilometres from Kuala Lumpur. It’s even closer to Kuala Lumpur International Airport. It has some great beaches and is the quickest and easiest beach place to reach from the inland city of Kuala Lumpur. Thanks to this, it is quite popular with locals, especially on weekends. It’s also quite easy to reach from Singapore. Port Dickson generally refers to a lovely stretch of coast as well as the town itself. Along here, there are many beaches, calm seas and plenty of nature to enjoy. It’s great for a beach break and is also a good alternative to a KL stopover if you are flying into KL and just have a night or two before flying elsewhere and would rather a beach and a pool to a big city. In this episode, I discuss why you should visit Port Dickson, what to do when you’re there and where to stay. It’s our favourite quick stopover place in Malaysia thanks primarily to its great resorts, and I think you could love it too. By the end of this episode, you’ll be all set for a visit to Port Dickson. Read the show notes here: https://diveintomalaysia.com/episode21

Everything Sarawak And The Heart Of Borneo

lundi 28 août 2023 • Durée 23:06

Wondering if it’s worth visiting Sarawak on your Malaysian adventure? Sarawak is the biggest of the two Malaysian states located on the island of Borneo or East Malaysia, as it’s known within Malaysia. It’s the place to go to discover the best parts of Borneo. This is the natural environment and wildlife as well as the indigenous culture with longhouse stays and cultural immersion being accessible to tourists. From the absolutely amazing UNESCO World Heritage listed Mulu National Park to the longhouses in the Kelabit Highlands to my favourite city in Malaysia, Kuching, there is so much to love about Sarawak. I hate that it took me so long to explore this state so don’t make the same mistake! A trip here is like nowhere else in Malaysia and you need to experience it to really appreciate it. In this episode, I’m discussing why you should visit Sarawak, how to get there, what to do once you’re there as well as how long to stay. By the end of this episode, you’ll be booking your trip to Sarawak! Read the show notes here: https://diveintomalaysia.com/episode19

All Your Day Trip Options From Kuala Lumpur

lundi 14 août 2023 • Durée 18:17

Considering a day trip while you’re in Kuala Lumpur? While there are many things to do in Kuala Lumpur (or KL as its often referred), there are also many great things you can do around Kuala Lumpur on a day trip. Kuala Lumpur is centrally located in peninsular Malaysia which makes it easy to get to a lot of places. For example, you can go shopping and enjoy the theme parks at Genting Highlands. You can see the culturally significant sites of UNESCO listed Melaka. You can enjoy the thriving food scene in Ipoh. Or, you can escape the city and see the rural side of Malaysia in Cameron Highlands or trek in the jungle in Taman Negara. Malaysia is one of those places where there’s so much to see – and you can visit many places from KL. By the end of this episode, you’ll know all your options and can hopefully narrow down your list of where is best for you to visit. Read the show notes here: https://diveintomalaysia.com/episode18

Exploring The Jungle Heart Of Malaysia In Taman Negara

lundi 31 juillet 2023 • Durée 15:24

Wondering if it’s worth visiting Taman Negara on your Malaysian adventure? A massive national park in the centre of Peninsular Malaysia, Taman Negara National Park is the perfect place to get outdoors and enjoy the natural attractions that Malaysia offers. From thick rainforest to deep caves, this park is a dream come true for outdoor enthusiasts. Taman Negara is calculated to be around 130 million years old and is home to one of the world’s oldest rainforests as well as the highest point in Peninsular Malaysia, Gunung Tahan. This is the place to head to see the natural beauty of Malaysia. And it’s not far from Kuala Lumpur! In fact, you can even visit here on a day trip, although I highly recommend you stay longer. In this episode, I’m discussing why (and when) you should visit Taman Negara, what to do when you’re there and where to stay as well as how to get there. By the end of this episode, you’ll be all set for a visit to Taman Negara. Read the show notes here: https://diveintomalaysia.com/episode17

All About Travelling In Malaysia With Kids

lundi 17 juillet 2023 • Durée 32:42

Wondering if you should travel to Malaysia with kids? I’ve travelled to Malaysia many times with kids. The first time I travelled here with kids, my daughter was 1 and I was 20 weeks pregnant with my second child. Since then, I have travelled here with kids aged from 9 months old to nearly 13. Sometimes, my husband comes, sometimes he doesn’t. So it’s definitely possible to have great experiences travelling here as a single parent as well :) We also lived here when our first two kids were aged from 2 to 5 years old. So I feel I know a lot about travelling with kids in Malaysia and it’s all been very positive. From the fact that Malaysians generally love children and will make you feel especially welcome when you walk in with young kids to the love the kids have been shown by total strangers, it’s been the easiest place in the world that we have travelled with kids – and we’ve travelled to over 60 countries with our kids! But, of course, travelling here as a parent is just one element of exploring Malaysia with kids. What do kids think of it? What do they love? What is challenging? What would they recommend to other kids? In this special episode, I’m not just discussing travelling in Malaysia from a parent’s perspective, but I also have some special guests – my kids! So listen to this with your own kids and lets all talk about travelling in Malaysia. Read the show notes here: https://diveintomalaysia.com/episode16

Wondering if it’s worth visiting Sabah on your Malaysian adventure? Sabah is one of the two big Malaysian states located on the island of Borneo, or East Malaysia, as it’s also known. It is home to so many amazing natural attractions. It really should be on any bucket list!

There are many more animals to look for including pygmy elephants, cloud leopards, sun bears, many types of monkeys, crocodiles, tarsiers and more. A trip to Sabah really is a trip about natural attractions from the wildlife to the rainforest to the absolutely stunning islands off the coast to the amazing underwater environments. But there are other things worth seeing and doing around here too and, in this episode, I’m discussing why you should visit Sabah, how to get there, what to do once you’re there as well as how long to stay. By the end of this episode, you’ll be all set for a visit to Sabah! Read the show notes here: https://diveintomalaysia.com/episode15
