The main island, Pulau Tenggol, is about 50ha. in size and is one of the most beautiful and serene islands off Peninsular Malaysia's east coast. It is also famous for its spectacular rocky cliffs that offer many excellent dive sites. Here, one can find pristine coral formations and a number of submerged rocks with excellent coral growths.
The deep waters surrounding the island offer good visibility especially during the months of April until June.
