"
Teluk Resang beach in Mersing, Johor is normally subjected to rough waves and wind. But the sombre tone of the sand which matches the wild nature of this spot makes it a popular destination."
Close to Penyabong beach, you will find Tanjung Resang which is normally subjected to rough waves and wind from the open South China Sea. The sombre tone of the sand matches the wild nature of this spot. Dense outcrops of trees form the backdrop for a cluster of chalets facing the beach and jetty.
Nearby reefs can be easily reached from the Tanjung Resang jetty while the many other dive sites at the nearby islands, including a WWII shipwreck at Pulau Aceh can be reached by only a short boat ride.
