A total of 15 beaches from
10 states have been selected for the two-week long inspection trip by the
renowned Australian conservationist Brad Farmer.
Together with his
photographer and research assistant Jaka Adamic, they are visiting Malaysia since
14 to October 28 to inspect, evaluate and document the beautiful beaches in the
nation for his new book, 101 Best Beaches.Com Asia.
The guidebook aims to

Terengganu; Pantai Cenang in Pulau Langkawi, Kedah; Pantai Teluk Kemang in Port
Dickson, Negeri Sembilan; Pantai Juara in Pulau Tioman, Pahang; Pantai Batu
Feringghi in Penang; and Pulau Pangkor in Perak. With its wonderfully diverse

As for East Malaysia,
Tanjung Datu and Pantai Santubong in Sarawak; Tanjung Aru, Pulau Mantanani,
Pulau Sipadan and Pulau Sibuan in Sabah; and Pantai United Nations in Labuan were selected for inspection.
Beaches in Malaysia
are special due to the location; most of it sits right next to the jungle. It's
one of a few places on earth where you can spend a day lounging on the sand and
then go hiking in the jungle the next day.
The 101 Best Beaches.Com
Asia is expected to be Asia’s version of the 101 Best Australian Beaches, the book
will be the first authoritative guidebook of beaches in the world featuring and
promoting Asian beaches which are defined as ranging from rivers, lakes, to
resort-style beaches.
