LABUAN MARINE PARK - ACTIVITIES

Sea Snake Watching
Just a five minute boat ride from Pulau Kuraman and just off Labuan, is a little reef atoll which is home to hundreds of sea snakes. The most commonly seen is the Sea Krait. Their distinctive black and white markings make them a beautiful and dramatic sight. But be careful as these beautiful sea creatures are poisonous.

Kayaking
Kayaking is a great way to explore the marine park around Labuan. At Pulau Kuraman, kayaking around the island can be a great experience, without being too tiring.

Beachcombing
You will find many beautiful and secluded beaches around Pulau Kuraman, Pulau Rusukan Besar and Pulau Rusukan Kecil.

Dinghy Sailing
The park is sheltered from rough seas, but with a good, constant off-shore wind that is perfect for sailing, there are plenty of sailing opportunities, both for novices and advanced sailors. For the more adventurous, dinghy charters and snorkel trip charters in shallow waters can also be arranged through local tour operators.

Snorkelling
The park is surrounded by fringing coral reefs, which makes it a veritable snorkeler's paradise. No reef is unreachable or off-limits.

Scuba Diving
There are many spectacular scuba dive sites. Labuan Marine Park is for eco-friendly divers only.

Windsurfing
Kuraman Bay, on the windward shore of Kuraman Island, has consistent on-shore winds. The bay is perfect for beginner windsurfers. Advanced windsurfers can go to the pounding surf just beyond the mouth of the bay.
