2D1N Selingan Turtle Island + Sepilok Orang Utan Package

Overview of Tour

The green and hawksbill turtles enjoy a safe haven on Selingan Island, commonly known as Selingan Turtle Island. Despite the fact that both turtle species are currently in risk of extinction, the island provides a safe site for them to lay their eggs. The island is a recognised national park and turtle conservation area in the Sulu Sea, only 40 kilometres north of Sandakan's beaches. You can visit and stay there to see the incredible spectacle of turtle landings for yourself! Turtles come ashore to lay their eggs throughout the year, but they typically do so after nightfall. The ideal time to visit Selingan island is in between July and October.  Today, the Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitations center is a popular tourist attraction, with visitors able to witness the rehabilitation process as well as observe orangutans in their natural habitat from a boardwalk.
