Kuala Rompin is the first stop in Pahang if you are approaching the state from either Johor Bahru or Singapore. It is 133 km from Kuantan. The gateway to the magnificent Endau-Rompin State Park as well as the sea gateway to the Tioman Islands, Kuala Rompin itself is not short of attractive destinations. It offers water lovers a choice of exciting yet soothing holiday destinations.

Don't forget to take home some lovely rattan souvenirs produced by the Orang Asli or aborigines living in the surrounding lush green forest. If you're a seafood lover, the months of September and October are the best time to visit Rompin, especially for lobsters. They are usually caught fresh from Rompin River, Nenasi River, Anak Endau River and Endau River.
