While Desaru Beach is a popular beach in Johor because it’s close to the city, the half-developed Rawa Island (Pulau Rawa) is one of the best beaches in Johor as it offers a peaceful ambience combined with fun amenities. After taking a 20-minute boat ride from Mersing (Johor’s coastal town), you’ll be greeted by a pristine beach with a massive orange slide that leads people to the clear blue waters beneath it.
