Pulau Tenggol

Pulau Tenggol is a small forested island located about 17 km off the coast of Kuala Dungun in Dungun District, Terengganu, Malaysia. Part of the Tenggol archipelago, it is known for its clear waters, rocky coastline, white sandy beaches and well-preserved coral reefs. The island is a prominent diving and snorkeling destination on Peninsular Malaysia's east coast and is traditionally uninhabited except for resorts and dive operators.

Visitors can expect a small, rugged, forest-covered island with rocky cliffs, sandy bays and clear turquoise water. The island is accessed by boat from Kuala Dungun jetty. There are a few resorts and dive centres, simple beaches for swimming and relaxation, and numerous offshore dive sites with coral reefs and marine life. Facilities are limited and focused on diving, snorkeling and beach activities. The interior is forested with short jungle trails.

Pulau Tenggol has traditionally been uninhabited and used by local fishing communities from Dungun. In recent decades it has developed as a marine tourism and diving destination due to its offshore reefs and relatively undisturbed marine environment. The island remains largely undeveloped compared to larger east coast islands.
