Rawa Island, Beach resort island in Mersing District, Malaysia
Rawa Island is a small island in Mersing District featuring stretches of white sand beach along its coastline. The waters surrounding it support diverse marine life that attracts swimmers and snorkelers.
The island served as a private retreat for members of the Johor royal family across different periods. This royal connection shaped its standing as a destination in Malaysian history.
Staff members greet visitors with warm Malaysian hospitality as part of their daily work on the island. This welcoming approach shapes how guests experience their time here.
Boats depart regularly from the mainland and provide the main transportation link to the island. The best time to travel is between March and October when weather conditions are more stable.
Large water slides are built on a hillside near the beach, allowing visitors to slide directly into the sea. This unusual feature combines fun with the sandy shoreline and appeals to vacationing guests.
