Pulau Sibu
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pulau Sibu is a small island of Malaysia's eastern coast, facing the South China Sea. It is actually made up of several islands namely Sibu Besar Island, Sibu Tengah Island, Sibu Kukus Island and Sibu Hujung Island.
Sibu is approximately 6 km long and 1 km wide, and for the most part covered by tropical vegetation. On the southern end there is a small fishing village with a population of fewer than a hundred people.
The main leisure activities on the island are snorkelling and diving, not surprising since the area was designated a Marine Park in 1993.
There are four main beaches on the Eastern side of Sibu where most of the beach resorts are located. Sea Gypsy Village Resort & Dive Base and Sibu Island Cabanas are situated on a beach facing Tinggi Island. Other resorts, such as Rimba Resort, are on the opposite side. Coral reefs are very close to the resorts.
