Fly AirAsia or Malaysian Airlines to Kota Bharu. Then take a taxi to Kuala Besut Jetty. Catch a boat to Perhentian from there. Most ferries/boat leaves in the mornings or late mornings. So catch the earliest flights.

Cheaper option. Take a overnight coach from KL to Kota Bharu. Upon reaching Kota Bharu Bus Station, follow the same procedure. Take taxi to Kuala Besut.......

Thank you! :)
I've booked flights, but won't be getting to Kota Bharu until 4.35pm... so don't expect to get to the Kuala Besut jetty until about 6pm. Is this too late to get a ferry??

Definately too late for the ferry unless of course you willing to charter a private boat. It will be pricey though. The option is to stay overnight in Kota Bharu or Besut to catch the next morning ferry.

Have you pre-booked any resort in Perhentian?? They might be able to help you out or advice you on the options available to you.
