There are 3 major beaches in Tekeko. In the south Tekek South Bay, in the centre Teluk Tekek and in the north Marine Bay. The largest is the one in the centre of the village.
However, by its nature Tekek is not a popular resort, so you won't see many tourists here. Most of them head to the four-star Berjaya Tioman resort in the south of the village. Here you'll find a spacious wide sandy beach with golden sand and ideal conditions for snorkelling.
Just in sight of the resort you will see the small island of Renggis Island.
