Muara Siberut
The main port town in southern Siberut, the starting point for obtaining permits and hiring guides before entering the rainforest and indigenous villages.
Muara Siberut is the administrative and transport hub of Siberut Island. Several fast boats and night ferries from Padang call here each week. The town has simple guesthouses, a market and a guide office, where visitors must register and buy supplies before entering the national park and Mentawai villages. The town itself has few sights, but you can watch fishing boats come and go at the pier, and the river mouth looks lovely in the evening.
