Kampung Juara is the only village on Tioman's east coast and arguably the most secluded. The Bluewater ferry doesn't go here on a daily basis just yet, which is probably why Kampung Juara is still as quiet and rustic as it was before Tioman's discovery by the tourism world at large. The only way to reach Kampung Juara is by the intermittant
Bluewater ferry or by private speedboat from Genting. Or, alternatively, by Jeep taxi from Tekek. Some hardy travelers trek their way across the island from Tekek on foot, but at nearly 3 hours, this isn't really for the faint-at-heart.
The simply stunning sunrise alone makes Kampung Juara more than worth the transport effort. And Kampung Juara's beach was voted
21st most beautiful beach in the world by CNN, so try not to miss it when you're doing Tioman.
Kampung Juara offers a few chalets and restaurants, most of which are sitting within a stone's throw of the sea. In fact, whichever Kampung Juara establishment you visit, you pretty much always have a gorgeous view of the sea.

Apart from the sea and the beach, there's a dense emerald jungle to explore, as well as a modest river, a waterfall and a lagoon, so you won't be in need of places to see and things to do, especially since there's also a
turtle sanctuary to check out.
By the way, if you're into surfing, visit Kampung Juara during the monsoon months, November - February, because the surf here gets up to 10 feet and can be of rather good quality. In fact, so surfable are these waves that Kampung Juara is now home to a yearly
surf contest.
