Pulau Pinang refers to a dive site along this island's shoreline, where the terrain is characterized by granite boulders typical of the Aur archipelago. The site reaches a maximum depth of around 24 metres and is rated an intermediate dive. Boats to this area typically depart from Mersing on multi-day trips covering several sites around Aur and neighboring Dayang.
