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.

About this website

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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.
