About Tioman SpeedBoat

A new operator on the shortest Tioman route.

Tioman SpeedBoat Sdn Bhd launched in May 2026 to do one thing well: run the fastest, most comfortable crossing from Tanjung Gemok on the Pahang mainland to Tioman Island — about 60 minutes door-to-door versus 2+ hours on traditional Mersing ferries.

We operate two purpose-built, full-cabin speedboats — air-conditioned, twin-engine, and Marine Department certified. Each takes 36 passengers, so every sailing feels less like a queue and more like a private transfer. Daily service runs March through October, then resumes after the monsoon break.

Quick answers before you book.

The questions travellers ask us most. For the full list see our About Us page.

How long is the crossing from Tanjung Gemok to Tioman? expand_more
About 60 minutes door-to-door on Tioman SpeedBoat vessels — roughly half the time of traditional ferries from Mersing, which typically take 2 hours or more. Total journey time may extend slightly depending on which Tioman jetty (Genting, Paya, Tekek, ABC, or Salang) is your final stop.
Is Tioman SpeedBoat faster than Mersing ferries? expand_more
Yes. Our purpose-built speedboats complete the Tanjung Gemok to Tioman crossing in approximately 60 minutes, while ferries from Mersing typically take 2+ hours. Combined with the shorter drive from KL to Tanjung Gemok (3.5–4 hours via the LPT2 East Coast Highway) versus to Mersing (4.5+ hours), travellers reach Tioman over 90 minutes faster on the Tg Gemok route end-to-end.
How many speedboats does Tioman SpeedBoat operate? expand_more
A fleet of two purpose-built speedboats. Each vessel is full-cabin (fully enclosed and air-conditioned) and seats 36 passengers, giving a combined capacity of 72 passengers per simultaneous departure.
