Pulau Gemia is a privately owned island, about 800 metres off Kapas Island. Pulau Gemia has white sandy beaches, crystal clear water, beautiful corals and marine life as some of it’s natural pristine assets.
There's only one resort on the island named: Gem Wellness Spa & Island Resort. It's the former Gem Island Resort, In 2004 they renovated the existing chalets and they refurnished the whole resort. And it got a Spa.
The chalets (Water Villa's) themselves stand on sturdy concrete stilts, hugging the coastline, with views across the sea offering a perfect holiday escape.

What you can do there ?
 
Diving - The sea in between Pulau Kapas and Pulau Gemia is also home to stunning coral gardens and other marine life. The spot is a haven for diving.

Snorkelling - without taking the boat out. There are many things to see near the shore: corals of different shapes, colours and sizes, sea urchins, swordfishes, butterfly fishes, parrot fishes, bump head fishes, crabs, clams and lots of sea cucumbers. We even saw a clown fish, complete with its ‘house’ of sea anemone.

Beach Walk - Those who love long walks on the beach should go to the north-eastern part of the island when the tide is low.

Banana boating - is one of the most fun things you can do on the water, especially with a group of friends.

Tusita Wellness Spa - The spa is one of the things which comes highly recomended by people who visit the island. Its one of the cheapest Spa's in malaysia due to the fact it's very new. However the treatments available are first class. A variety of different massages are available as well as other treatments by skilled thai attendants.
