Talang-Satang National Park was established with the primary aim of conserving Sarawak’s sea turtle population. The park comprises the coastline and sea surrounding four islands of the southwest coast of Sarawak; Pulau Talang Besar and Pulau Talang Kecil off Sematan, and Pulau Satang Besar and Pulau Satang Kecil off Santubong, near Kuching.
Talang-Satang National Park covers a total area of water bodies approximately 19,414 hectares. Beautiful shallow reef areas surround all the four islands. The reefs generally consist of several species of ard coral and colonies of soft coral. They provide shelter and resting grounds for sea turtles, and are also important fish breeding areas.
