Corals

Tenggol boasts some of the most pristine coral reefs in Peninsular Malaysia due to the fact that it is not highly commercialized and sees few visitors compared to Tioman and Redang. Fields of soft and hard coral blanket the shallow reef flats at Turtle Bay at the entrance to Teluk Air Tawar.
