NICTAR PINEAPPLE PARK — Attraction in Johor

We came across this plantation during our day trip to Potian and Pekan Nanas. The location is quite accessible by car as it is not too far off the main roads. There is a small carpark at the entrance but it can get crowded if you are, like us, unlucky enough to run into a tour bus.

This is a "smallish" pineapple plantation, it also doubles as a "pineapple museum" for its extensive displays of pineapple related knowledge in Malaysia. It charges RM10 per person as an entry fee to tour the plantation. While it not a big amount, we find that it can be better if this can be used, even partially, to offset purchases in the store.

There is a small cafe/store at the entrance, the cafe is small but cosy, good for an idyllic rest and to enjoy a nice bottle of pure pineapple juice. The staff is nice and friendly here, they are all-too-willing to share the different types of pineapples and the juice they have to offer from these difference species. They have freshly baked croissants with pineapple spread, and "cut plate" of pineapple too, quite a...

The main purpose going to the farm is actually to buy some premium grade pineapples but sadly perhaps due to no harvesting season or out of stock hence can't bring home any pineapples, sigh. We went for a short tour of the farm. The entrance ticket cost MYR10.00 per person which comes free, a chilled pure pineapple juice 250ML glass bottle for each ticket purchased (and some pineapples slices was served after we ended our farm tour and chill at resting tables). Before walking in the farm, there's a young lady briefly introduces the types and grades of pineapple and what other things to see in the farm. Once in the farm, we can roam freely regardless of time limits but due to scorching hot sun, even an umbrella won't shades off the heat hence we decided to exit within short period of time. It will be enjoyable if the owner can extend the closing time to 7pm instead of 5pm as the sun is less sunny after...
