Monkey Beach
Teluk Monyet
A secluded bay between ABC and Salang, reachable only on foot or by boat, with a quiet beach and shallow waters that are good for snorkelling.
Monkey Beach lies on the jungle coast between ABC village and Salang village. It is a small bay surrounded by forest. With no road, it can only be reached on foot along the coastal trail or by boat, which keeps it quiet and natural. The white sand beach is fronted by shallow coral reef, ideal for snorkelling. You often see sea urchins, clownfish and tropical fish, and occasionally small sharks pass by. From ABC, the jungle trail takes about an hour and crosses several small hills. From Salang, it takes about 40 minutes. The nearby Monkey Bay is equally secluded. There are no shops in the bay, so bring your own water and snacks and carry your rubbish out. The macaques here will rummage through bags, so keep your belongings secure.
