Pulau Tiga<br />

Located in Kimanis Bay off the western coast of<br />

Sabah, Tiga Island was formed in 1897 when<br />

an earthquake on the Philippine island of Mindanao<br />

caused a volcanic eruption near Borneo. Tiga<br />

Island is one of the three islands that make up Tiga<br />

Island National Park.<br />

The island’s claim to fame is being the first ever ʻsecret’<br />

location for the TV hit reality series, ʻSurvivor’.<br />

Hence, many refer to Pulau Tiga as Survivor Island.<br />

Located about 10 kilometres (6 mi) off the coast,<br />

the island is reached by a 30 to 40-minute boat<br />

ride from the small settlement of Kuala Penyu. An<br />

overnight stay is better than a daytrip. Stay at<br />

the Pulau Tiga Resort which offers recreational<br />

opportunities such a diving, fishing, billiards, and<br />

non-motorized water sports.<br />

The island is famous for its therapeutic natural active<br />

mud volcanoes, however, at the time I visited<br />

they were in a dire state. While the trails around<br />

the island are worth the hike, the best attraction of<br />

the island is the beaches and the incredibly beautiful<br />

sunsets over the South China Sea.<br />
