Any souvenir shops: Tioman T-shirts
  • Tip Rating:
  • The souvenir shops in Tioman or main land sell probably more T-shirts then anything else. The prices are more or less the same but it'll be slightly cheaper to buy from the main land. Compare the qualities and prices if you have time to. If not, just choose one that you like most.

    Beside T-shirts, singlets are also a popular buy but try not to buy any sea shells and corals related souvenirs in order to discourage them in removing from their beautiful natural environment.

    A T-shirt can costs between RM10 to RM50 depending on the quality, design and the country it is made from.

    Paya: Line of shops at the beach front
  • Tip Rating:
  • This is the village itself. This is also where you could get your meals if you do not want to eat in your resorts, buy souvenirs, load up on groceries and kill some idle time.

    The village itself is not self-sustainance. It has to rely on supplies from the outside world via the ferries.

    Tekek Village Duty Free
    There is one duty free shop at Tekek Village, cheap beer, alcohol product and ciggy. But the clotch and gift are a bot expensive here, for those who travell by ferry, it is good to get t-shirt, key chain, bracelet, chain or any gift at Mersing R&R, the price is much more cheaper.

    Not much. Just take home some sand.
    Not much actually. Maybe a T-shirt or a shell keyring.

    Psst this is a secret. If you wake up early enough, do walk down the beach and you will see corals! You can see sea cucumbers and those black nusty things which are 'rambutans' and they are poisonous. If you're lucky, you can see a dead coral. Take it home as a special sovenior.

    Shh.

    Soveniors in shops are quite expensive.

    The usual beach shops
    Shops on Salang Beach are quite scarce with only 2 or 3 food stores and 2 or 3 stores selling local crafts and beach clothes. The biggest of the beach shops is shown in the photo and is good for getting pressies to bring home. The girlfriend likes to buy the bikinis, tops, and towel things which are all quite hippyish looking. You will be best to barter and it is probably expected with the prices being quite high.

    Duty Free Shop at Kampung Tekek: Cheap Beers on the Island!
    Duty free shop that is like convenient shop.
    I only found the their beer is cheaper than others.
    I try to ckeck out chocolates and liqueur but they are not as cheap as expected.

    Beers!
    You can get Carlsberg or Tiger beer at RM 1.50 per can (325 ml)! The price is cheaper than a portion of instant cup noodle on the island!
    You could get the beer at a little bit higher price (around RM 2 - RM 3) at other shops on the island.
    Soft drinks are sold at almost the same price with beer!

    Not more than RM 3 per can of 325 ml.
