The Taaras Beach and Spa Resort

Perhentian Islands, Malaysia

The Taaras dive centre, a PADI 5 Star outfit, sits right on the beach, making it incredibly convenient for early morning boat dives. We’ve found their house reef, while not a headline act, is perfect for a relaxed afternoon dip, often spotting baby blacktip reef sharks in the shallows. It’s a solid choice for those staying at the resort, especially if you appreciate the ease of walking from your room straight onto the boat. They run trips to all the popular Perhentian sites, like Sugar Wreck and the T3, usually with smaller groups than some of the busier centres.
