Getting There from Singapore

If you are coming from the Woodlands Causeway, make a U-turn after passing the Malaysian Immigration and Customs. Go along the busy Wong Ah Fook road and you will see an Interchange.

Do not turn left or right, just keep going 12 o' clock at all traffic junctions.
Once you are out of Johor Bahru city, the traffic will be much less. Continue to head towards Kota Tinggi and Mersing. When you get to the junction that points left for Kota Tinggi, ignore that sign and head towards Mersing.
When you get to the traffic junction further up the road, follow the sign to Desaru which is a right turn.

If you are coming from the Second Link at Tuas, enter the Highway and head North towards Kulai town. There should be only one turn to the left. Follow the Kuala Lumpur, Melaka and Kulai signs until you get to the exit for Kulai.

Follow this road (Route 90) all the way till you get to the sign that points left for Kota Tinggi. Drive along this road till you get to another sign that points left for Kota Tinggi and straight for Mersing. Head towards Mersing till you come to the traffic junction where there is a right turn for Desaru.
