Interesting facts about the location:

Tanjung Tuan is the only remaining patch of coastal forest on the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia and has been gazetted as a Forest Reserve, Wildlife Reserve, Fishing Prohibited area and an historical site which also happens to be the closest landmass to Indonesia Island Sumatra where the raptors have been using this promontory for thousands of years to crossover the Straits of Malacca.

Tanjung Tuan is well known for its virgin old growth forest where very large tropical lowland forest trees can be found. Its waters are rich with coral life and sea grass, which attracts a myriad of fish and turtles. Its secluded beaches are ideal as turtle egg laying grounds.
