Pulau Tiloi, Langkawi

Pulau Tiloi is a small island to the southeast of Pulau Langkawi, Kedah. It is within a cluster of small islands that also includes Pulau Buyong, Pulau Bumbon Besar, Pulau Bumbon Kecil, Pulau Tanggok Kecil, Pulau Tanggok Besar and Pulau Buyong. Pulau Tiloi is uninhabited and undeveloped. It is the easternmost of the islands in a string, save for Pulau Buyong to the northeast. So far I haven't yet come across the etymology of island's name.

There is a pier on this island, and it is possible to camp there. The Malaysian Agricultural Research & Development Institute, MARDI, had once planned to develop Pulau Tiroi as a floral destination, even renaming it Pulau Bunga. However, nothing of substance has materialised.
