Formerly known as Pulau Babi Besar or Big Boar Island, Besar was named for the wild boars that once roamed the island. Visitors looking for a spot of tranquility need look no further. Considered one of the largest islands off the coast of Mersing, Pulau Besar is also one of the most secluded. Truly a dream destination for those seeking to get away from it all.
