TANJONG JARA
MALAYSIA
WITH REEFCOMBER TOURS

Updated June 2004 valid till 31 March 2005

Tanjong Jara is a luxury resort dedicated to adventure and the most satisfying forms of relaxation you can imagine. The design was inspired by the indigenous 'istanas', elegant, wooden palaces that indulged the Malay Sultans of long ago. Such was the art and craftsmanship that went into the concept that it won the Aga Khan Award for Architecture.

The natural beauty of the setting begs to be explored; so jungle safaris, river expeditions and overnight camps to observe the wildlife are arranged. Meanwhile the resort itself offers kayaking, watersports, snorkeling,and diving as well as a state-of-the-art gymnasium and a therapy complex offering a range of treatments.
Tanjong Jara Resort is situated on the East Coast of Peninsula Malaysia, The resort is built on a 17 hectare (42.5 acres) site with a one and a half kilometer (one mile) stretch of private beach and is approximately a mile away from the expressway. The riverine town of Dungun lies 8 kilometers (5 miles) to the west of the resort.

Accommodation:

There are a variety of rooms available - all beautifully appointed with your comfort in mind.
The Anjung Beach Cottages are located closest to the beach in single storey units. Each cottage offers a 6'6" bed plus an additional single day bed. A wall of windows, and glass doors, not only provide you with virtually unobstructed views of the South China Sea, but also allow access to your private deck area. The cottage is complimented by a large, sunken outdoor bath set in its own private garden. In the adjoining en suite bathroom, there is a large indoor shower, two vanity units and toilet facilities. Room amenities include; satellite television channels, coffee/tea making facilities, in-room safe, in-room refrigerator, terry cloth robes, slippers, a hairdryer and the resort's personal blend of heavenly scented shampoo, conditioner, body soap and sea salts.
The Serambi Ground Floor Suites are contained in double storey units, located on the lower level. Enjoy breakfast out on your private, partially covered terrace overlooking the resort's gardens while you watch the monitor lizards scurry along the walkway and the monkeys swing in the trees.

Diving :

The island of Tenggol forms part of the Terengganu Marine Park and is still a well-kept secret amongst the diving community. The island lies 30 kilometers (18.6 miles) offshore east of Tanjong Jara Resort. Our brand-new twin outboard engine Speedboat covers the distance in a spectacular 45-minute ride.

Tenggol is a small island, famous for its tropical jungle, rugged features and sandy white beaches but most of all for its exciting dive sites. The underwater ledges surrounding the island are home to rare species of marine life and colorful coral gardens, which are carefully monitored by the Marine Park Organization to ensure their continued survival.
The approximate 13 dive sites offer unforgettable under water experiences for the beginner and exciting adventures for experienced divers. Our dive guides are very familiar with the water, currents and tides around Tenggol Island. They know the reefs and ledges, where those exclusive fish hang about and are familiar with the most probable diving spots, as these change seasonally.
Diving season on the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia takes place between the months of April and September. The northeast monsoon weather pattern is experienced between the months of December and February and therefore sea-faring and diving activities are not recommended during this time.
