Talang Satang National Park, Marine protected area near Sarawak coast, Malaysia.
The national park encompasses four islands with coral reefs, sandy beaches, and mudflats spread across 206 square kilometers of marine territory.
Established in 1999 as Sarawak's first marine protected area, this national park initiated conservation efforts for endangered turtle species in Malaysia.
The local maritime communities maintain traditional fishing practices while adapting to conservation regulations that protect marine life within park boundaries.
Access to the islands requires a 30-minute boat ride from Sarawak Boat Club Jetty, with advance reservations needed for diving and snorkeling activities.
Four marine turtle species, including green and hawksbill turtles, return annually to nest on these protected beaches from April through October.
