The Pulau Bidong archipelago consists of Pulau Yu Besar, Pulau Yu Kechil, Pulau Gelok, Pulau Karah, Batu Tengkorak and Pulau Bidong. Pulau Bidong is located about 5 miles south of Redang, a 15-20 minute speedboat ride away. It is also possible to go from Merang by boat. Close enough to Redang for a day trip, Pulau Bidong has no resorts but holds many memories for Vietnamese refugees who once passed through its gates.
