What is a good one day family vacation?

What is a good one or  two day vacation location a couple hours by ferry or bus from Singapore?

  • Not interested in golf. Would like either good snorkeling, or rainforest.

  • Answer:

    Go to Taman Negara or Endau Rompin. Both are excellent national parks. You did not specify how many hours: I would recommend heading up along the east coast of Malaysia towards Kelantan or Terengganu. Truly the cradle of Malay culture. Really laid back, some beautiful islands, keropok lekor (amazing fish crackers), nasi dagang. Southwards, you can take the ferry to Bintan. I'd head straight for the private island of Pulau Nikoi from there, as it is really beautiful, and not as crowded or expensive as Bali (for mid-high end island getaways anyway).

Slightly further than Tioman would be Redang, http://redang.org/, have clearer sea and even better snorkeling. Wouldn't really recommend Batam for snorkel though. But yes, Batam is about the closest place you can go for both snorkel and rainforest. :)

Head over to Indonesia - E.g. Batam (http://www.batam.com/) by Ferry. 30mins. Snorkel, jet-ski, good seafood and massages.
