Pekan Nanas
Spend a half‑day in Pekan Nanas: visit Nictar Pineapple Park and the Pineapple Museum, then grab a quick bite; no need to stay overnight.
Pekan Nanas is a small town in Pontian, Johor, known for its pineapple attractions. The sights are clustered near the main road and can be seen in a few hours, so a day‑trip from Johor Bahru or Pontian is enough.
