If you are spending more time in Malaysia, we recommend exploring the West Coast of Malaysia, including Genting Highlands, Cameron Highlands, Penang, Langkawi, and Malacca.
We suggest avoiding the East Coast (including the Perhentian Islands, Redang, and Tioman), as well as eastern Sabah and Sarawak, during this time, as many island resorts may be closed due to the monsoon season.
