Rawa Island is surrounded on all sides by crystal clear waters, white powdery beaches and thick forests inland. It is the definition of paradise on earth and has been the Malaysian peninsula’s best kept secret for a long while.
1. Take a Stroll
The environment in Rawa Island is perfectly unspoiled and is recommended as one of the prime Desaru attractions. Take a stroll in the morning or the evening and breathe the clean air and take in the magical landscapes and clear waters.
2. Play Some Beach Volleyball
Resorts in Rawa Island and Desaru such as Anantara Desaru Coast Resort & Villas will organise beach volleyball matches. Have a match with your close friends and family or other guests.
3. Snorkelling
If you head to the west beach it’s one of the best snorkelling spots in the Malaysian Archipelago. You will be able to witness colourful fish and a vibrant coral reef.
4. Try the Local Cuisine
Head to the local restaurants to try out the local cuisines. One of the dishes you shouldn’t miss is the Rawa Fish special and the barbecued seafood.
5. Relax By the Sea
The beaches are one part of why the island is so revered. Spend some time on these pristine beaches just relaxing, maybe reading a book or working on your tan.
