This small peninsula is only 1.5 hours from Kuching by car and longboat and is home to seven distinct rainforest ecosystems giving it a remarkable diversity of animal and plant life. Constant erosion over millions of years had turned Bako into a picturesque coastline of steep cliffs, rocky headlands, and many stretches of sandy bays.

Bako?s most famous residents are the bizarre Proboscis monkeys, and it is also home to silvered langurs (leaf monkeys), long-tailed macaque monkeys, wild boar, flying squirrels and monitor lizards as well as hundreds of different bird species. Fascinating plant life includes mangroves, strangling figs, carnivorous pitcher plants and symbiotic ant plants.

Unique geological features mark the coastline, including the famous Sea Stack, whilst well-marked trails lead to rugged jungle-covered hilltops and secluded beaches. A packed lunch is included.

One hour each way from Penang by high-speed catamaran, explore Pulau Payar, the only Marine Park off the West Coast of Peninsular Malaysia. The crystal clear water is reputed to support a multitude of colorful marine life and large species of corals, and is ideal for snorkeling.

Scuba diving can be arranged at additional cost. Buffet lunch is served at the platform. Facilities include an underwater observatory.
