| Sangalaki |
 |
It is a small island lying about 3 degrees above the equator. It is about 140 miles from Tawau, Malaysia and its size is about 30 acres (slightly smaller than Sipadan).
Sangalaki is surrounded by fringing reefs which extend out about 600 meters into the ocean. Therefore, the area of the fringing reefs is about 10 times greater than the island itself.
Sangalaki is an island surrounded by wide sandy beaches and it is covered with dense tropical forests with thick undergrowth. So, you can walk around the island easily in less than 30 minutes.
Unlike Sipadan, Sangalaki does not have walls. However, the reefs drop from about 4 meters to about 20 meters and up to 40 meters at the some point. Practically, the corals are untouched. In this way, they can have a good display and healthy growth.
Marine life is very rich in giant manta rays, which move around the island and hence giving rise to the names of dive sites .. manta parade .. manta run etc.
