For a couple of days...
Visit the Islands
There are a variety of tropical islands with white beaches and azure seas near Mersing, Tioman being the largest among them.
Tioman island has steep slopes of lush green vegetation and a wide variety of flora. Extensive coral reefs make it an excellent place to go diving or snorkeling. Popular beaches include the ones around the villages of Tekek, Genting, and Salang.
Getting There:
Tioman is accessible by passenger boat services from Mersing. By air, Pelangi Air and Berjaya Air operate daily flights into Tioman from Kuala Lumpur. Pelangi Air also flies daily from Singapore.

there will be a pasar lambak a.k.a pasar lelong located at about 4km towards jalan jemaluang after pengkalan batu/kluang traffic light on every 15th & 30th/31st each month. Try the local dishes and stuff there.
The pasar is quite big for a small town like mersing.
CORRECTION: Expedition Robinson was film on the island P.Besar,P.tengah,P.mensirip, P.Tinggi,and few smaller islands of Johore states since 1997-2007 . Countries doing the filming are:Sweeden,Denmark,Greece,Norway, Finland,Germans,Russia,South Africa,Belgium,Holland,Swiss Georgia and the Baltic states.
Malaysia is fast becoming one of the leading dive destinations of the world with one of the richest marine environments in the Indo-Pacific Basin. The incredible bio-diversity of marine life, coupled with beautiful islands, white sandy beaches and clear warm waters, keeps divers coming back for more.
In Malaysia, the coral reef eco-system supports more that 50 generas of coral and more that 200 species of fish. It is not an exaggeration to say that almost every time a marine bio-diversity survey is conducted in Malaysia's tropical seas, the species list increases!
