Some of the most stunningly beautiful things about Malaysia are its tropical islands. And there's more to them than sun, sand and surf: particularly on the East Coast and Borneo's Sipadan there are coral reefs and hence excellent diving .
* Labuan - offshore finance centre off the coast of East Malaysia, Borneo
* Langkawi - An archipelago of 99 islands this is a destination known for its beaches, rainforest, mountains, mangrove estuaries and unique nature. It is home to some of Malaysia's most opulent resorts all the way through to very reasonable budget accommodation. It is a duty free port which makes for a great value destination.
* Pangkor - fishing community and less well-known tourist destination off the west coast
* Penang (Pulau Pinang) - former British colony known as the "Pearl of the Orient", and bustling island city with excellent cuisine
* Perhentian Islands - glittering jewels off the East Coast still undiscovered by mass tourism
* Redang Island - popular destination for scuba divers
* Sipadan Island - remote scuba diving paradise at the easternmost tip of Malaysia
* Tioman Island - once nominated one of the most beautiful islands in the world
