2008 Tioman Island, Pahang


Pulau Tioman (Pulau is Malay for Island) is the largest island on the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia. It is located in the South China Sea, approximately 32 km from Mersing, the closest mainland port. Measuring some 22 km long and 11 km at the widest point, the island has a total land area of 133.6 sq. km.

Tioman has beautiful beaches with surrounding marine areas. The landscape and the beauty of the island have attracted many tourists, locally as well as from abroad, and the island was once voted one of the 10 most beautiful in the world. In addition to fishing activities, tourism has become a very important income generating activity on the island. Many tourist facilities such as chalets, rest houses and hotels have been built, either by the state government or the private sector. While it is fair to say that development over the last 10 years has had some adverse impact on the islands' environment, it remains a beautiful and restful place.

It is the sea which attracts many visitors to Tioman, particularly divers, who come to enjoy the warm clear waters. The reefs around Tioman and the neighbouring islands, which radio-carbon dating shows are nearly 6,000 years old, have many varieties of coral and tropical reef fish, as well as larger species such as turtles and sharks. The rare giant clam is also found here.

Immortalised as the fictitious paradise Bali Hai in the 1960's box-office hit musical "South Pacific", many myths and legends surround the island. The most popular one holds that the island is a dragon. The high peaks at the south of the island are in fact:

the "Chula Naga" (dragon's horns) for is not Tioman the mighty dragon Sri Gumom, that formerly held its abode in Pahang, but which on its attempt to visit its sister, Gunong Linga, Sri Rama prohibited, and, changed into stone .. the dragon Sri Gumon fell into the deep sea the there remains

Whether it is the sandy beaches, the coral reefs, the pristine rainforest or the myths and legends of its past that attracts visitors, there is no doubt that Tioman is a jewel in the South China Sea.
