Beaches
The most popular beaches on the island include the Air Batang Beach and Salang Beach, for dives and snorkel, and Juara Beach, which provides a perfect hideaway. About 10 minutes from Air Batang Beach are Monkey Beach and Monkey Bay, which lie next to each other. Both beaches offer superb snorkelling opportunities. Juara, a relatively quiet beach on the east coast, is special in its own right. Three mountain rivers empty cold fresh waters to the beach which will make you tingle with cold. A path leads from the beach to waterfalls in the jungle.

Coral Reefs & Marine Life
Prolific coral gardens fringe the coast of Tioman Island. The water is clear to a depth of 100 feet and it teems with a rich variety of corals, fish, and shells. The underwater gardens are home to lace-like delicate sea fans, alyconarian soft corals, and multi-colored staghorn coral as well as varied brightly coloured fish which include parrotfish and butterfly fish, sweetlips, cardinal fish, wrasses, damsel fish and the aggressive anemone fish.

The best season for diving is between May and October when the water is at its best. The most popular spots for scuba diving and snorkeling are along the shallow reefs at Salang beach and Monkey Bay as well as the nearby islands of Tulai and Renggis.
