Saran Beach has more of a party vibe than anywhere else on the island. On the south side of the pier there is a wide and attractive white sandy beach, which is suitable for swimming. For many, Sharan's attraction isn't walking through town centres, but looking for giant lizards lurking in the dark canals. And tourists can head to the neighboring CoralIsand for snorkeling and beach parties.

Located at the southern tip of Tioman Island, Mu Valley is perhaps the island's beautiful secluded kampong. The beaches here may not be as spectacular as those in Guara, but the traditional houses and flower paths make the town itself quite beautiful.
