A tiny, crescent-shaped sandbar surrounded by shallow, turquoise lagoons. It is the perfect spot for a relaxing swim or a scenic stroll in the middle of the ocean.

An exhilarating drift-dive and snorkeling spot where you can glide alongside majestic Manta Rays. These gentle giants gather here to feed and visit "cleaning stations" in the nutrient-rich currents.
Siaba
Affectionately known as "City of Turtles." This calm bay is a sanctuary for green sea turtles, making it the most reliable spot in the park to swim with these peaceful creatures.
Kalong Island
The ultimate sunset destination. Every evening, thousands of "Kalong" (giant fruit bats) emerge from the mangrove forests, filling the orange sky in a spectacular mass migration.
Kelor Island
A small but mighty island known for its steep short hike. The summit offers a gorgeous view of the surrounding turquoise waters, while the beach below is perfect for a quick dip.
Manjarite
A pristine snorkeling spot with crystal-clear, shallow water and a long wooden pier. It’s famous for its colorful coral gardens and abundance of small, vibrant reef fish.
