Pass By: Mersing Harbour Centre, Jalan Abu Bakar, Mersing 86800 Malaysia
Begin with 5:00 AM morning pickup at your Singapore hotel. Relax into the leather seats of your private, air-conditioned deluxe minivan as your driver crosses the Singapore-Malaysia drive-through border (no standing in line) and enjoy the 2-hour chauffeured drive to Mersing marina, the entry port into Tioman Island, Malaysia. Use the onboard WIFI if you wish while enjoying a complimentary packed breakfast box.
Stop At: Tioman Island, Tioman Island, Rompin District, Pahang
Upon arrival at Mersing, head to your waiting private speedboat for briefing. Get outfitted with a complete set of snorkeling gear (mask, snorkel, life vest and fins), and learn how to wear them properly with the help from the speedboat captain.
Your private speedboat will then make the scenic journey to Tioman Island. After about 45 minutes, arrive at the first location – Long Beach. Explore a tropical paradise covered with soft white powder sand bordered by crystal-clear waters and rustic green mountains. Soak up the serene ambience before continuing your private sightseeing at Coral Island and Monkey Bay.
Jumping off the speedboat at Batu Malang, you’ll find sapphire blue warm waters and well-conserved coral reefs full of fish and marine life – an ideal snorkeling spot. Beginners can participate in an optional snorkeling lesson with the speedboat captain.
