The Mersing ( Malay Sungai Mersing ) is a small river about 20 km in length in the south-east of the Malay Peninsula in the state of Johor near the border to Pahang . The river flows from south to north and flows into the South China Sea at Mersing . The estuary serves as a port for fishing and ferry operations to the offshore islands. However, the river bed is so shallow that the ferry timetables have to be adapted to the tides.
