Pulau Soyak
A small reef island off Salang Bay, with dense table corals in shallow water, suitable for snorkelling and beginner diving practice.
Pulau Soyak is a small reef island in the sea south of Salang Bay, within the marine park. The surrounding water is shallow, and the corals are mainly table and brain corals on gently sloping reef. It is a popular snorkelling spot where you often see parrotfish, damselfish and sea urchins, and sometimes small turtles. It suits average swimmers and open-water practice for diving courses. It takes 5-10 minutes by boat from Salang or ABC, and it is usually a stop on a round-island snorkelling tour. Do not stand on the coral, and use reef-safe sunscreen.
