It is part of the Johor Marine Park.fishermen.The Aur Island weather is affected by the monsoon winds that blows from South China Sea and the Straits of Malacca. The northeast monsoon blows the wind from South China Sea from November to March and this is the time when the east coast states have heavy rainfall.

PULAU PEMANGGIL

 I shall start today off talking about Pulau Pemanggil which is another island that sits 45km (27.96miles) east of Mersing. Strangely enough , this island has a myth to it and this makes visiting there all the more better. Here is how it goes. See that big rock (though it looks more like a hill/mountain) , it is called Batu Buau “The Buau Rock” . Legends has it that centuries ago , a boat carrying an Indonesian family  came by these waters. One night , the father had a dream and the dream was beckoning him to settle in the island. The voice as was believed, belonged to the guardian (or the 'Penunggu' in traditional Malay folklore) of the island. Taking heed of the Guardian's advice, these first inhabitants steered off in the direction of the island and landed on the beach at the foot of the rock. They named their village, kampung Buau, after the Buau Rock. As the years went by, more Indonesians were invited to stay on the island(by the guardian) followed by a number of Malay folk arriving from Pulau Aur. Hence the name 'Pemanggil' or 'The Caller' was bestowed on the island. It is believed that Nenek Buau, the Guardian of the island lives somewhere on Batu Buau. Every year the “penghulu”(the village head) pays respect to this highly revered 'sentient being' by leaving an offering of polished rice and a payment of 1 sen at the top of the rock. Failing to do so, it is believed, would bring untold hardship to the island community.
Pulau Pemanggil is well known for deep-sea fishing and good hunting grounds for marlins and mackerels. It is also famed for the beauty and abundance of marine life within its crystal clear emerald waters and its endless stretches of white sandy beaches. Pulau Pemanggil is an ideal location for fishing and snorkeling .

PULAU DESARU

Desaru is basically a long stretch of white sandy beach which stretches to approx 25km(15.5 miles) fringed with palm trees and causurina . It is located at the South-Eastern corner of Johor(refer to map included in previous post).Desaru is easily accessible via public transportation from Johor Bahru which is the capital of Johor, Kota Tinggi or Tanjung Belungkor. However if you are in Singapore and you wish to take a trip to Desaru , then you can easily do so by taking a ferry from Changi Point in Singapore to Tanjung Belungkur and finally to Desaru.There are many things one can do at Desaru . Water orientated activities includes swimming, water skiing, fishing,surfing,canoeing and catamaran sailing. Apart from that , you can also enjoy other activities such as jungle trekking , horseback riding , archery , taking part in go-kart race and  off-road activities.One thing you can definitely try is surfing. If wind is good, the waves are quite OK, and especially the lack of jellyfish and sharks makes it an attractive location for surfers. During December, January and first half of February (which is the monsoon season), the waves are almost constantly high, but do expect the water to be a little cold.The Desaru International Triathlon is held here annually.Nightlife is limited to the hotel bars which are rather quiet.This is because most visitors are Muslim. So yea, that's pretty much it for Desaru.
