Tioman Island

Tioman Island, a designated marine park, is a jewel in Malaysia's diving crown. What sets it apart is the sheer diversity of its underwater landscapes, catering to all levels of divers. The island's waters feature vibrant, healthy coral gardens, dramatic granite boulder formations creating exciting swim-throughs, and accessible shipwrecks teeming with life. This variety across its dozen dive sites ensures that every dive offers a unique experience, from macro hunting in sheltered bays to navigating gentle currents at offshore pinnacles.

Diving conditions are typically excellent, with warm tropical waters averaging 28°C and visibility often reaching 15-20 meters during the prime season from March to October. Its relative accessibility from both Kuala Lumpur and Singapore makes it a convenient and rewarding getaway. Divers should visit for the reliable conditions, the stunning biodiversity including turtles and reef sharks, and the opportunity to explore one of Southeast Asia’s most well-preserved and accessible marine ecosystems.
