The attraction of Pulau Tenggol lies in its beautiful rocky, sharp and steep cliffs. Divers seem to be attracted by the vertical canvas of marine life that is created by a dramatic ‘drop-off’ of the rocky terrain which extends from the interior of the island right into the ocean.

This particular interesting structure of the island has made Pulau Tenggol a safe heaven for a diversity of marine lives.

Diving At Pulau Tenggol

Pulau Tenggol or Pulau Tenggul, Terengganu

Pulau Tenggol is known for its strong currents. Therefore, try to avoid visiting Pulau Tenggol between November and March when the east coast monsoon period occurs.

Schedule your visit during the calm inter-tidal window between April and October. This period of time is perfect for drift diving when currents are relatively strong.

By Road

Pulau Tenggol can be reached only by boat. However, you need a boat ride at the jetty at Kuala Dungun. To get to Kuala Dungun, if you are coming from Kuantan which is the capital of Pahang, you can take a bus at Jalan Besar Terminal or you can take a taxi directly from Kuantan.

If you are coming from Kuala Terengganu, take the bus at the Syed Hussin Central Bus Station.

Pulau Tenggul can be reached via land and sea.
