Air Papan (GPS: 2.516, 103.83351) is a town in Johor. It is 15 km north of Mersing a short distance from the border with Pahang. It is a good place to enjoy the sea breeze and watch the waves rolling in from the South China Sea.
There are chalets here for rent, and every year on 1 May, there is Pesta Air Papan, a fun fair. Apart from that, the town becomes quiet again for much of the year.

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
