E203 - Southernmost Point of Malaysia! Exploring Johor Bahru & Forest City

We sail from Pisang Island into Johor Bahru, passing under the bridge that links Malaysia and Singapore before entering Puteri Harbour. Once docked, we explore the ambitious yet eerie Forest City (also called Ghost City) before being welcomed with a festive dinner and drinks as part of the Sail Malaysia Rally. The rally also takes us on a cultural and sightseeing tour of Johor Bahru, where we visit the historic Sultan Ismail Building and Johor State Legislative Assembly, explore the Tanjung Piai Mangrove Nursery, and stand at the southernmost point of Peninsular Malaysia. We even enjoy a sweet stop at a pineapple farm, sampling delicious products, and finish with a vibrant cultural experience. Another unforgettable stop on our Sail Malaysia Rally journey! 🌏⚓ Timestamps if you like to Jump Right In: 00:00 Intro 00:29 Pisang Island to Puteri Harbour 06:15 Forest City 08:38 Diesel refuelling 09:38 Pinetree Marina Welcome Dinner 11:26 Johor Bahru Tour WHO ARE WE? Hey there! We’re Chris and Jo, an ordinary Aussie couple living our extraordinary dream aboard our Seawind 1260 since January 2019 and now we continue from 2024 aboard our new 1370! Our adventure began with an unforgettable journey down the east coast of Australia, followed by a sail to the stunning New Caledonia. In 2020, we continued our exploration further north, and by 2021 and 2022, we circumnavigated Australia, discovering breathtaking locations along the way. Having previously owned fishing and water-skiing boats, our passion for sailing deepened after crewing in South Australia, leading us to make the leap into full-time living at sea. We hope to inspire you, just as we were inspired by other YouTube channels, to chase your dreams and explore the wonders of this beautiful world.
