About the Sibu Island
" From an aerial view, the island looks like a bird or a bat resting with its wings outstretched. Its calm and quiet ambiance makes it the perfect choice for those who dream of a relaxing and laid back vacation."

 Located 12km from mainland Johor, Pulau Sibu is one of the more developed islands off the East Coast of Johor. From an aerial view, the island looks like a bird or a bat resting with its wings outstretched. Its fine white, sandy beaches lay glittering against the backdrop of its surrounding emerald green waters, refining its coastal shores.

Its calm and quiet ambience proves to be the perfect choice for those who dream of a relaxing and laid back vacation. The coral reef encircling the island is home to many colourful and exotic fish and other marine life and is a sure heaven for scuba divers and snorkelling enthusiasts, while its lush tropical forest provides soothing greenery to help ease the mind.

The sea off the coast of this island is planted with kelong or artificial tyre-reefs and has been a great pull for anglers. However, since the island was gazetted as a marine park, fishing activities here are limited to rod and line fishing only.
