"Too many tourists make this outing average. Heavy traffic from boats and snorkellers take the fun out of diving or snorkelling. Visibility is average. Unfortunately there's not many other places to go between Nov-Mar except Langkawi since the East Coast of Malaysia is virtually shut for the monsoon. " by Andre
"ditimpa perasaan.. 'll b back as certified divers" by cdaismail
"My wife and I visited Pulau Payar on the 12/11/04. We went for 2 dives for the day, unfortunately it is not a good dive site for us in term of visibility (only 3 to 5 metres) which may due to the monsoon season and underwater lives. I was a bit of disppointed though expected, because I just couldn't stopped to compare it with Pulau Sipadan! Pulau Sipadan is still my #1 dive site." by KL Lai

A word of caution though; you need to do some careful selection as the good, bad and ugly are lumped together. The same can be said for the fish on offered. Prices may be cheap sometimes but also look out not to be shortchanged for weights. The worst experience you can get is after having your chicken chopped, you might find the "thigh parts" not wrapped up for you to take home.

At Endau-Rompin Johor National Park, the concept of getting away from it all takes on a whole new meaning .
The park is managed by the Johor National Parks Corporation, and encompasses some 49, 000ha of virgin lowland tropical rainforest.
Imagine trekking through isolation for centuries. The abundant vegetation is a magnet for creatures great and small, and the sheer beauty of the landscape takes your breath away.
Wake up in the morning to be greeted by the timeless sounds of the forest – the hoot of the gibbons, the love call of the hornbills, the chorus of the cicadas. As darkness falls, the mood becomes languid and mysterious, and nature’s symphony takes on a whole new tune.
This is one of the few places left in the country where the wild denizens of the mighty jungle roam free. They includes no less than 230 species of birds, 179 species of butterflies and all the great Malaysian mammals – the tiger, the elephant, the tapir and the Sumatran rhinoceros, as well as a host of other animals – from the agile Dusky – Leaf Monkey clowning in the tree – tops, to the indigenous fish at Tasik Air Biru, which are so tame they feed off your hand.
For those who cannot live without the modern must-haves, there are furnished chalets, piped water and a cafeteria at the main visitor’s Complex in Peta to ensure a comfortable stay.
But why cofine yourself to a room when you can rediscover the exhilaration of kayaking down a roiling river, or wade through streams so pristine you can gather the water in your hands to quench your thirst. Or just sit back, close your eyes and enjoy a quiet communion with nature.
Spend a night at Endau-Rompin Johor National Parks, and you will understand why explorers and naturalist alike have been lured here since 19th century to uncover the secret of this mist-shrouded jewel. Spend two night, and you will be hooked forever. For the forest never sleeps.
Friendly Tips
Upon a confirmed booking, you will be provided with a list of things to bring with you. In a rain forest, comfort is a priority. The weather is usually hot and humid, with a chance of rain, while the nights can be quite cool. Conditions vary with the time of year. Rainfall is heaviest between October and January.
Temperatures range between 25C and 32C. The rainy season between December and January often renders the park inaccessible. Always check with the park authorities beforehand before making your way in.
