Tanjung Pengelih is a good stop for Port, Customs, Immigration in one place. Located at the eastern entrance to the Johor Straits it is the best place to do customs and immigration clearance before continuing to Johor Bahru.

Marina radio contact

Radio is not monitored, there is no need to radio on approach.

Navigation/Approach

If currents are too strong to enter, anchor to the South and dinghy in. Stay away from Navy pier further North.

Berthing

It is permissible to tie up to the outside of any of the piers. Do not enter into the marina itself, this is now reserved for official usage. Long stays are not permitted but the officials here appear to be unconcerned by vessels tying up overnight or for slightly longer periods while waiting for clearance or tides in the Johor Straits.

Be aware that several facilities (e.g. Senibong Cove) in the Johor Straits cannot be entered at low tide, and so waiting here for tides is often judicious.

Marina facilities

There are no facilities here other than customs and immigration clearance.

Marina Location

The port is near the town of Pengerang but leaving a vessel here unattended while taking a trip there is probably unadvisable.

Transport

There are some taxis nearby. Some of the taxi drivers speak English, most do not.

Clearance here is fast, efficient and the officials are unfussy.
