"Consists of three main islands, this park is acclaimed for its pristine natural environment. Covering a total area of 15,864ha., this park was gazetted in 1978 to protect its pristine natural environment." As the name implies, Pulau Tiga Park consists of three main islands – Pulau Tiga, Pulau Kalampunian Besar and Pulau Kalampunian Damit or better known as ‘Snake Island’. Covering a total area of 15,864ha., this park was gazetted in 1978 to protect its pristine natural environment, which include coral reefs, exotic marine life, native flora and fauna and other natural existence of the islands.

The only available facilities in the park are located at Pulau Tiga, the largest of the three islands. Dubbed as ‘Survivor Island’, Pulau Tiga was the main location of the popular ‘Survivor’ TV programme shot in 1999. Pulau Kalampunian Damit is a small island covered in thick vegetation and is home to hundreds of the amphibious sea snakes, while Pulau Kalampunian Besar is a small sand cay built up from unconsolidated coral fragments popular with the many species of birds including the Megapodes, the Great Crested Terns, pigeons and sea eagles.

The drier month of March to July is the best time to visit the park, although it is open throughout the year. Pulau Tiga Park is located in Kimanis Bay on the West Coast of Sabah, about 48km south of Kota Kinabalu.

Getting there
To reach Pulau Tiga, one has to take a 30-minute boat ride from Kuala Penyu, a small settlement about two hour’s drive from Kota Kinabalu. Other ways of getting there is by chartering a speedboat from Kota Kinabalu and cruise to Pulau Tiga or fly to Labuan Island and charter a boat from there. Both journeys take about 90 minutes.
