Sebukang Bay Resort

Far away from town, peaceful and quiet, simple lifestyle, stunning scenery, rich in marine life and colorful corals

Short gate away at mini Maldives, hidden gem Sebukang Bay Resort, Pulau Aur, Johor Bharu. Pulau Aur, the farthest island from the mainland of Peninsular Malaysia at 38 nautical miles (70.3 kilometres), least untouched tropical islands with a verdant green interior surrounded by clear turquoise waters teeming with marine life. Despite heavy rain started from 430 a.m till 9.30 a.m in Mersing, we was worried if we would able to reach the island. Our guide assured us it would be safe. Reached via speed boat approx 11/2 hours from Jetty Batu, Mersing with rough sea. Consisting of simple wooden chalets, Sebukang Bay Resort exludes a rustic and almost village-like charm, complete with a sun bleached wooden jetty and swaying coconut trees lining the beach. We was served with lunch then island excursion to Kampong Teluk Sakinah, the main populated area on Pulau Aur. The main jetty, mosque, school, rural clinic and police station are located here. The only grocery store can also be found here, although it is modestly stocked. Out of reach from the trappings of the digital age, this is a place for those seeking to unwind and seek solace in nature. Dinner served with fresh seafood & we inhale the goodness of the nature the whole day! We was served with seafood BBQ at the 2d night and it was party with fish, prawns, etc. The next day we start our morning snorkelling activity at the shore snorkeling spot, Teluk Meriam where the marine sea creatures can be superb visibility from the ocean’s surface. Lots table coral reefs can be found here too. Next, we headed to Teluk Pahanan where the feeling of being in Maldives is real here! Beautiful azure crystal clear water with snorkeling spot with serenity view! Overall, love the place as it brings back childhood memories of kampung environment. Our chalet are located at 50 m from the sea and the sound of the sea, oh gosh! Amazing! The warm welcome from the owner and family are simply lovely. More to improvise on the service of interior chalet such as toilets should be expand. Hot shower is missing. Fan are dirty and window panels should be fixed ( lizards easily can come in). Bring mosquito coils or ask the owner as the night are cold to freeze cold and mosquito's bites are free! Food are amazing and the owner make sure food are served well!

I've been there on 16 - 18 sept, tersangatlah nature, pulau yg bersih, crystal water & cool like waterfall, best snorkeling so many coral colorfull ❤️ hiking to pulau dayang its very worth it, amazing view, best tour guide, friendly & professional to train & handle kids 👍 the challengers only the return speedboat where is 2 hour on ocean from/to Mersing 🤢 overall very2 good & memorable experience 🥰

I like the view. Give a try to visit here. it's a great place to run away from any of your problem, I guess 😆. The food meet my taste, receptionist & co-workers are friendly ++ I've met abundant joy of people.

I miss this place. The sound of the sea waves. The soothing sea breeze. The spectacular sunrise and sunset views. Ooohhh, it was heaven. Everything else doesn't matter.
