Tioman Island Travel Guide

Tioman Island (pronounced Tee-oh-mahn), a tiny island off the south of Malaysia's east coast, is a popular destination on Malaysia's east coast, visited mostly by nearby Singaporeans, who can hop a quick ferry ride to the island; backpackers, who have a multitude of cheap chalets to flop in; and scuba enthusiasts, who have a range of coral gardens to explore. The island is only 39km (24 miles) long and 12km (7 1/4 miles) wide, with sandy beaches that line several small bays, clear water with sea life and coral reefs, and jungle mountain-trekking trails with streams and waterfalls. So idyllic is the setting that Tioman was the location for the 1950s Hollywood film South Pacific. Read More
