Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary |
|
|
"A perfect Proboscis monkeys observation spot for any tourist who wants to have a closer look at these very rare monkeys."
The Labuk Bay Proboscis Sanctuary offers another perfect Proboscis monkeys observation spot for any tourist who wants to have a closer look at these very rare monkeys and do not have the time to travel too far away to watch them.
For those who love to watch the unique primate not found elsewhere in the world, it would definitely gives you one of the most exhilarating and memorable experience observing the Proboscis monkeys both young and adults leaping from tree to tree and eventually coming down to feed on young leaves and plants. The leaping act is superb, fast, steady, stylish and perfect.
The Sanctuary is located at the centre of the mangrove forest along the coastal land near Kampung Samawang in Labuk Bay at Sandakan.

"Labuk Bay is a wonderful and fantastic place to watch the lovely proboscis monkey`s near by during the feeding times. Once you saw them jumping from tree to tree with those funny nasal sounds, you´ll never forget them ! Labuk Bay is a reserve, which is build up with so much love to nature by the owner, that I can warmly recommend it !!!"
