If you plan to visit Tioman, you should know that there are 2 access points to Tioman which are Mersing and Tanjung Gemok. The best access point though it's Mersing which route is serviced by Bluewater Express who charge $20 for the trip to Tioman.
Re: Getting to Tioman Island Before you're on your way to Tioman, make sure you know and remember which jetty or village (kampong) your resort is located as names are very similar. The usual order of stops is Kampong Genting, Kampong Paya, Kampong Tekek, Kampong Air Batang, Panuba Jetty and Kampong Salang.
Singapore to Tioman I've done this trip but from Singapore by taking a bus up to Mersing then a ferry to Tioman. The journey took me about 5 hours, though I could have taken the ferry direct from Singapore.
