Hello eyktay
It’s not crowded at all. Overall, less than 20 cars on that day but then I reached the place at 3.30 pm. I went up to the top tier of the waterfall – beyond the “do not cross over sign” but with steps leading to the top most waterfall. It is eerily quiet & only a handful of people (literally deserted). At the bottom tier, it is more alive but not crowded. There are some very small fishes that can be seen. The place is clean, no rubbish strewn on the ground. Toilet is clean too. There are two toilets. The one I use is away from the slide. Can’t comment on the condition of the other one.
Of course the water quality of the stream can’t be compared to the non-tropical waterfall. Because of algae, growing on the rocks, the water appears greenish.
PS: Thanks for sharing the Desaru photos. I have seen them. Look like a nice place to go. Would you be able to comment if day trip to Desaru is recommended and how long is the drive to Desaru? -

Re Desaru, yes, it's fun la. But shld visit the fruit farm & fireflies. If day trip, doubt u can see the fireflies. Drive to Desaru is about 3-4hrs.... -

Show them the picture yet they can't imagine. So, brought them over although the time spent there was short, they like it.
If you ever decide to take a trip over to Kota Tinggi, please please do take care of the kids going into the water. The rocks are extremely slippery (I hope I don't sound like a nagging old woman). One adult supervision per kid. -

Talk about the bolehland.
Actually on the way back from Kota Tinggi, while waiting at the traffic light to wait for the light to turn green, came a loud siren & a blinker behind our car. Husband panic, me panic and I guess everyone waiting at the traffic light also panic. Then came the voice speaking through the yeller (dont know what to call that) coming from the police car.
Blah blah blah blah…me and dh look at each other very confuse. Try to decipher what they are talking about. Are they asking us to move to the side for ticketing? Anyway, other car seems to understand what the police want and make way for the police car to move.
Boy, were we so relieve that the police car move away from our back. But then came the yeller again. In English this time & keke, this time the four of us understand what was being said. "Singapore car simply just don’t understand". -
