Tinggi island
Ultimate guide (November 2025)
Tinggi is an island to the southeast of Mersing town, Malaysia. It is as beautiful as Perhentian Islands, but less crowded. Good beaches are almost the same like best hotels (SHAZ and TAd Marine). Swimming is comfortable, while snorkeling on the house reef is great. There are few hiking trails in the jungle - including opportunity to visit highest peak of the island. Shore and seabed: sand, stones.
