About Boheydulang Island

Bohey Dulang is a high volcanic island of about 313 hectares off the east coast of Sabah, near the town of Semporna. It is the second-largest of the eight islands of Tun Sakaran Marine Park, Sabah's largest marine park, at the entrance to Darvel Bay.

A ridge with three peaks rises to 353 m, and a trail of about 700 m climbs to a viewpoint over a lagoon formed where the sea flooded the crater of an ancient volcano. Coral reefs around the island draw divers and snorkellers, and birds include hornbills and black-naped fruit doves.

A marine research unit on the island breeds giant clams and farms seaweed, and the island is home to Bajau Laut, or Sea Gypsy, people. There is no accommodation on the island.
