Johor Bahru (Port of Entry)
Johor Bahru
| |
Johor Bahru, Malaysia is the country's second largest city. The term Johor Bahru can be used to refer to the city itself, or the region of Iskandar Malaysia in which it is located -- including the nearby satellite cities and towns of Nusajaya, Permas Jaya, Pasir Gudang and Pengerang. One of the main attractions of Johor Bahru is its proximity to the city of Singapore, while providing much cheaper prices for berthing and other services.
Local Weather

- Senibong Cove is on the eastern side of the causeway, about 15 minutes away just past Permas Jaya.

Anchorages
No anchoring is allowed anywhere in the Johor Straits, except for short duration stops in the vicinity of Tanjung Pengelih or while waiting for tides near the various marinas.
