    This island is closest to Mersing. I don't have any contacts for this but the tour agent at hotel embassey ( mersing) arranges for trips there and other island hopping tours.

    I've been here several times to dive. The coral life here is simply fantastic. Also, there is a narrow channel here that allows for drift diving. They have a BBQ here every Saturday where you can indulge in truckloads of lamb, crab, chicken, beef ...
    There are many dive operators in Singapore that will organise the trip from you. I'm not too sure about other reservation methods.
    I've always booked my trip thru' my regular dive instructor

    There's a beautiful island near Mersing where a volcano lies dormant. The mountain can be seen from far and that's why it's named "Tinggi" ( meaning tall in Malay).
    For more info and reservations on hotels there, check out their website

    This has to be the most popular and visited island of all. Singaporeans love to go there and soak in the sun It's not a bad place to dive either.
    I've been here and seen turtles swimming over here. Coral life however, is only so-so. It's way better at Bahara Rock, which is nearer further up north.

    For more details , check out their website

    One of the best places to take a snapshot of Mersing Town is from the top of the hill at Masjid Jamek. It gives a beautiful and fantastic view of Mersing Town and the nearby islands.
    N.B: Proper attire is required even when you are just entering the Mosque’s compound…No shorts Please!

    Malay cakes or the local kuih are abundance in Mersing…Don’t forget to try them, they are not just cheap but also delicious.
    Try the 'Satar' (similar to otak-otak but not spicy) and 'Kropok Lekor' the local delicacies.
    Kropok Lekor, Kropok Ghondeh or Kropok Batang are all the same except for their name…Try them with the Chilli Sauce , they are delicious when eaten hot.

    You can spend time wandering leisurely around the streets in Mersing town or stroll along the coastline or just idles at the ‘Taman Rekriasi’ to enjoy the nice view of the ocean and mingle with the local if you like…Maybe you can get more information about Mersing or the nearby islands this way.

  • Mersing is where you go to when you want to reach the islands off the states of Kuantan & Johor in Malaysia, e.g. Pulau Tioman, Pulau Besar, Pulau Rawa, Pulau Pulau Pulau...

    Depending on the company you keep and whether you missed your ferry and how long you have to wait for the next one (ha...) you could either have a fantastic time here or a very mediocre experience of this lil local fishing village settlement.

    The main things to do here if you came for the above are listed in the following tips.
