Small vessels may anchor NE of Pulau Arang Arang (02°31.0'N 101°47.7'E) clear of both the prohibited anchorage and a submarine cable, in depths from 7.0-9.0m, but holding ground is poor. Prohibited anchorage: Prohibited anchorage area is extending 1nm W from Tanjung Kamuning and S round the point between Pulau Arang Arang and Railway Jetty. Anchoring is also prohibited within 50nm of the pipeline route between the offshore oil terminal and the shore.

Fairway Lightbuoy (02°30'N 101°43'E). The line of bearing 001° of Kuala Sepang Besar Light (02°35.5'N 101°42.8'E) leads in to the channel, within the white sector (350°-015°), passing E of Bambeck Lightbuoy (02°31.9'N 101°42.3'E) marking the E side of Bambeck Shoal, then W of Channel Lightbuoy (02°32.9'N 101°43.4'E) marking the NW extremity of the sand ridge. Inner channel: From a position approx 2nm S of Kuala Sepang Besar Light the track leads SE. The line of bearing 118° of the gap between Pulau Arang Arang (02°31'N 101°48'E) and Port Dickson leads in the channel, passing approx 0.1nm NE of No 1 Lightbuoy (02°33'N 101°43'E) then approx 0.1nm NE of No 2 Lightbuoy (about 2nm SE). When about 1.75nm from Pulau Arang Arang, the track is the same for the SBM, Esso Jetty, Shell Jetty or New Shell Jetty. At night, when No 2 Lightbuoy is abeam, the track leads within a white sector of Kuala Sepang Besar Light (311°-320°), astern, to the berths off Port Dickson.
