Island and Beaches

ptengah

Tengah Island
Pulau Tengah, an uninhabited island, lies nine nautical miles off the coast of Mersing on the South China Sea. Itis an hour away by boat from Mersing town. During the 70's, the island became famous as a Vietnamese refugee transit camp which was subsequently closed in theearly 80's. In 1985, Pulau Tengah was one of the few islands gazetted by the Malaysian government as a Marine Park dueto its abundant marine life and rare species of fish and coral. Giant leatherback turtles come ashore to lay eggsyearly especially during the month of July.

ptinggi

Tinggi Island

apapan

Air Papan Beach
This stretch of beach is popular picnic area. The annual 'Pesta Air Papan' celebrated on 1 st May draws thousands of people. There are chalets for rental.

lido

Lido Beach
Located along the banks of the straits of Johor is Lido Beach. This is a popular spot for relaxing, and it's from this point that you can have a good view of singapore. However, using a pair of binoculars would be even better, though, as it's quite a distance from Johor Bahru. Lido Beach stretches for about 3km along the banks, and is actually the waterfront of Johor Bahru. To view The Causeway that links Johor to singapore, a boat ride would be great idea. However, you are not allowed to exceed 300m from the banks of Johor Bahru. One can go on a cruise along the straits up to kg melayu to see 'kelong' (huge fish trap built on stilts) and visit farms on stilts that raise sea bass, garoupa and mussels.
