Pulau Tioman

Tioman is the biggest and most impressive island at the east coast. A brusk jungle covered ridge, that is fringed with idyllic palmbeaches primarily at the west coast. Through its size (39km long and 12 km wide) Tioman offers a wide range of activities to the visitor: You can snorkel in crystal-clear water, explore the manifold underwaterworld during diving or just lie lazy at the beach in the shade of the palm trees. Additionally the island offers still totally untouched jungle, which wants to be reconnoitred. The dense natural forest is a haven for birds, bats, mouse, deer, lizards and insects.

The discovery of Tioman is quite a time ago: The island supposed to be the setting for the mythical Bali Hai, the lonely magic island of the 1958 Hollywood movie South Pacific. In the 70s the Time magazine selected Tioman as one of the world’s most beautiful islands. If Tioman is still (or was anytime) correctly rated as one the world’ s most beautiful islands, maybe undecided, but anyway, it presents itself as paradise tropical island. But sometimes you have to search for this paradise off the beaten track.
