Pulau Aur

Pulau Aur

Pulau Aur, known locally as Aur Island, lies about 65km east of Mersing, Johor, Malaysia. It is part of the Johor Marine Park.

Its corals, lagoons and offshore pools make it a tourist attraction. It has for many years also always been a frequent stopover point for fishermen.

There is also a smaller island close by, Pulau Dayang. Both islands are home to Singaporean diving companies, divers reach the island by chartered boats from Mersing or Singapore.
