Did you know that you can contribute to marine science while on holiday in Tioman Island?
Conservation and community groups in Tioman collect data for their marine conservation initiatives. These seek to improve management of the Marine Park, as well as support marine research.
The Tioman Marine Conservation Group (TMCG) is a dedicated team of trained local islanders committed to conservation efforts across the seven villages on Tioman Island.
The northeast monsoon brings heavy rainfall and high winds to the islands from November to February. However, Tioman’s southerly location and large size mitigates the effects of the monsoon. Although most tourism businesses close in the monsoon season, Tioman can receive larger boats at its ferry terminal. So it is still possible to visit in the low season.
