Langkawi - Tuba Island, Malaysia

	PULAU TUBA
	A mountainous island with very little lowland, the island of Pulau Tuba, about five kilometres south of Langkawi island, is the natural habitat for an interesting selection of wildlife. Undeveloped and undisturbed, with barely enough space for the dirt track that surrounds the island, it's a good place to see wildlife, up close and personal. Go hiking or bird-watching, or find a deserted beach or two to get a glimpse of some elusive creatures. Check with your hotel for information on trails to follow. Getting There Hire a small speedboat. Around Rm6 each way. Costs vary with the numbers and size of the boat. Staying There Pulau Tuba is the only other island that offers accommodation but visitors should note there is only one place to stay - the Sunrise Beach Resort.
	PULAU SINGA BESAR (Singha Island)
	Nature-lovers must not miss Pulau Singa Besar, which contains a wildlife sanctuary located three kilometres off the southern tip of Pantai Tengah. It is a designated stop for the island-hopping boat. Getting There If you join an organised one-day trip, you'll get the services of a guide who will explain about the flora and fauna on the island. Many species of animals have been released on the island. If you're lucky you may be able to catch a glimpse of monkeys, mouse deer, various reptiles and birds - possibly peacock displays. Staying There There is no accommodation.
