Pulau Upeh is a small island off the coast of Malacca. It is located off the coast of Klebang and Tanjung Keling. There are plans to turn it into a tourist destination but so far, nothing much has materialized.
Pulau Upeh is visited by Hawksbill turtles. A turtle sanctuary is set up on the island to monitor and protect the nesting ground.
During the Second World War, Pulau Upeh was used to check for invading battleships. The island is notorious as a pirate haven preying on ocean liners and oil tankers passing through the Straits of Malacca. The pirate days are said to be over, now that a resort is being developed on the island.
