Choppy to small waves with good wind. Shallow water for more than 200 meters. Tide is present, but not a factor.

Unpopulated long stretch of beach in a straight coast. Plenty of space to launch. Beach is wide enough for launching even with high tide, some trees to pay attention to during high tide, but in general comfortable launches/recoveries. On Sundays people stroll down the beach and curiosity could be a factor, but they are absolutely friendly. Big bay, about 9 km across.

NE Monsoon (November to April): wind sideonshore 12-25 kts. SW monsoon (May to October): wind not reliable, occasionally good days in July to August with 12-15 kts. Sudden afternoon showers could bring strong wind gusts, just recover back to the beach as you see the black clouds approaching.

One hour 30 minutes drive from Johor Bahru (southern tip Malaysia in front of Singapore). From Singapore/Johor Bahru take Jalan Tebrau and continue north to Kota Tinggi, 40 km after turn right to Tanjun Lehman (ferry Terminal for Sibu Island) after approx. 25 km turn left following the Sibu Island Resort signs. About 2 hours if you drive from Singapore.

No rules and restriction, just common sense.

Drive south to Johoe Bahru.
