JETTY FEE – There is a jetty fee (RM35 per person) to be paid in cash on arrival at Tanjung Leman.

This is a
government charge which covers your entrance to the Marine and Conservation Park that Sibu Island is located
in. This is not the boat transfer that we charge for at the end of your stay.
Please purchase the jetty tickets at the three counters on the right hand side as you are arriving at the jetty; and
hand them to the security guard before boarding the boat – please see document ‘jetty fee at Tanjung Leman’
more information.
Don’t forget light refreshments can be bought at the jetty and there is a small charge to use the toilet facilities.

explain the situation and let you know when it is safe to board the boat.

INSECT SPRAY and SANDFLIES – Mosquitoes are more active at sunrise and sunset, so it is wise to bring
repellent with you. If you intend on lying on the beach or playing in the sand, it’s a good idea to bring along
some suntan oil, baby oil, coconut oil… to apply (can put over sunscreen) for protection against any sand flies
(anything oil based stops them sticking to you).
