Pulau Rawa - activities

 

 

One can take a boat ride to the nearby islands for a spot of snorkelling if you have already exhausted all the snorkelling sites at Rawa. You can arrange with the staff as to where to visit. The most popular islands are Pulau Harimau and Pulau Mensirip.

Pulau Harimau

Pulau Harimau has a cavern which can be easily reached if you snorkel a short distance from the drop-off point at the beach . The ceiling of the cavern has fallen through and is a nice little private pool where you can sit and enjoy the sun warming your back and the cool water lapping your heated skin.

 

 

 

Pulau Mensirip

 

This is a private island not too far from Pulau Harimau. It is deserted and a sign on the beach warns would be trespassers against alighting on the island. This tiny island belongs to the Johor royal family. But the snorkelling just off the beach is wonderful!! Try it - its worth every penny! Well, actually for a day trip out - we negotiated a total of RM80 for the boat to take us to these two islands.
