Pengerang is a small customs and immigration post southeast of Johor Bahru, Malaysia. It is to the south of Desaru and adjacent to Singapore.

There isn't very much to Pengerang apart from the nearby customs post at Tanjung Pengelih. From the customs post a few taxi drivers will take you in to town where there are a few small shops.

Pengerang is too far from Johor Bahru to make the cost of taxis worthwhile for the trip. You are better to take the ferry back to Singapore and go via the public transport system.

For all other details (weather, etc) see the Tanjung Pengelih or Johor Bahru pages.

Things to do Ashore

Tourism

  • Pengerang coastal batteries (a fort where weapons such as guns and cannons are stored), located nearby Tanjong Pengelih, are a heritage trail of World War II. The battery was constructed at the mouth of Sungai Santi, overlooking the sea towards Singapore and was abandoned after the war.
  • Tourists from Singapore sometimes visit for cycling and seafood in the area.

Grocery & Supply Stores

Eateries

  • There are a number of good seafood eateries in the area.

Transportation

  • There are ferries that run from here to Changi Ferry Terminal in Singapore. They are irregular and only run when there are sufficient passengers.
  • There are taxis for local area transport.
