Hooray....welcome to Tanjung Piai, Johor National Park. Bigfoot must have gone downhill and have made it to the southernmost tip of mainland Asia from Bukit Mertajam, Penang.  It is wonderful experience to be there at the southernmost tip of mainland Asia.  The journey to the south was long and tiring but worth a lifetime exploration of our beautiful country called Malaysia truly Asia.

It is located at the latitude 01 degree 16 North/ Longitude 103degree30.46East. This is also the point where the Strait of Malacca meets Strait of Johor.  Strait of Malacca is the sea between Malaysia and Sumatra, Indonesia while Strait of Johor is the sea between Singapore and Malaysia on the southernmost tip of Mainland Asia. 

Tanjung Piai got its name from the ferns "Paku Piai Raya" that are found in abundance in the local mangroves while "Tanjung" is the Malay word for cape.  It is about an hour's drive from the city of Johor Baru in the southern state of Johor, Malaysia passing through Pontian town and Pekan Nenas (Pineapple town) in the district of Pontian before travelling along the Kukup road that leads to Tanjung Piai. You will also be able to go to the nearby Port of Tanjung Pelepas, power plant at Tanjung Bin and the Fishing village of Kukup.

You will never walk alone at the Tanjung Piai National Park and also in Liverpool.
