Tour Itinerary
Day1
Your pick up awaits at the Airport Arrival Hall once you touchdown on Sandakan, or from your Hotel Lobby. Depart for the Sandakan Seafront Jetty.
0930hrs: A speedboat will whisk you off to Selingan Turtle Island. Take in the bright brilliant blues on your 1 hour journey to the oldest turtle hatcheries in the world, also one of South East Asia's most important nesting beach and breeding ground for the Green Turtle and Hawksbill Turtle… just 40km north of Sandakan, poised on the Sulu Sea.
Check in to your basic but clean accommodation. The rest of the day you are free to stretch out by the beach or jump right into the sea for a snorkel round the nearby reefs. Dinner will be served on the Island.
A Park Ranger will give a few knocks on your chalet door to alert you when a Sea Turtle is seen to be coming ashore to lay eggs. You can also take part in the release of baby turtle hatchlings, where baby hatchling are brought by the buckets by Park Rangers to be release by the sea shore. Witness hundreds of baby sea turtles make a dash towards salty waters where they will spend the rest of their lives in.
Overnight at the Island Chalet.
Meals: Lunch and Dinner
Day2
After breakfast, check out. Fuzzy Orang Utans await at the Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre. A half hour journey ushers you into the Kabili-Sepilok Forest Reserve where rehabilitating Orang Utans roam free in a natural habitat. A short video screening at the Nature Education Centre will then enlighten you on what goes on within the reserve. Proceed to the boardwalk amidst a lush lowland rainforest leading you to a viewing point of the feeding platform. It will be an easy 10 minutes track, well worth it as soon as you see the Orang Utans show up to grab some food. After tour, transfer to Sandakan airport or your respective hotel. Tour ends at 13:00hrs.
