Marine Life Discovery Park

Reviewed By szeyinm

Marine Life Discovery Park is a new attraction in Bintan that was opened in Oct 2019. Very well maintained park. From entrace, we were greeted by smiley receptionists that explained the inclusions in the entrance fees. Adult IDR 150,000, Child IDR 100,000. Which equates to SGD15 and SGD10 respectively however they only accept IDR but take major credit cards. We got free guided tour by Verdy as part of the freebies during soft opening. He took his time to walked us through all attractions and shared his knowledge about each animals and their interesting facts. Firstly, we walked through ECO Sanctuary to learn about the two species of turtles they have and you can feed the turtles for IDR 30,000 as part of their conservations donation. Yuyun spent her time to demonstrate how to pat the turtles and explained the harmful effects of plastic rubbish in the ocean that often was mistaken as jellyfish by the turtles as food and causing death. Interesting facts, all the turtles in the sanctuary are females and asked the friendly guide for reason. ECO LIFE BOARDWALK is where you can meet mangroves animals eg sea hawk, monitor lizard, mud crabs, python and mudskippers. Kids will be fascinated with their magic aquarium where you can put your hands magically into the tank to feel the fishes and the water will not flow out. SEA And TOUCH POOL was manned by Gunawan on that day. He is very good with kids and spent time encouraging my girl to come in the pool to have close encounter with the star fish, sea cucumber, fishes and baby shark. Kids can snorkel in KIDS EXPLORER which is about 1metre deepest to meet different species of fishes and star fish. Bigger kids can venture to MARINE ODYSSEA to snorkel and swim with over 70species of fishes. Try your luck to spot the 50kgs Grouper that like to hide among the rocks and coral. Unfortunately, the SHARKY SHORES and RAY DISCOVERY is not operational yet during our visit in January 2020. The Marine Cafe, served mouth watering local and western food. We ordered Ayam Penyet, Satay Ayam and kids meal chicken bento. They taste good and price cheaper than the two hotels nearby. We spent more than 3hours enjoying each attractions. The park fees is well worth it for their conservation effort and awareness programme they bring to the visitors. The family of Marine Life Discovery Park especially Yuyun, Verdy and Gunawan had presented a memory of lifetime for us today. Thank you. We will definitely come back again.

Mount Bintan

Reviewed By RicardoBowie - Edinburgh, United Kingdom

Okay, maybe not a mountain. Who wants to climb up a mountain on holiday anyway? Seriously though, easy enough to find using an excellent network of well maintained roads. A thoroughly pleasant experience on quiet roads. Once there, others have said about 1 hour up and 40 minutes down. I would agree with that too. Nothing difficult about this climb. Maybe a little bit steep in areas, however, ropes are there to help and assist. Others have said you don't need a guide. Agreed. A little common sense and endeavour and success is there for the taking. I didn't see too much wildlife. However, at the top the views are great and despite it not being Everest, I did feel a little sense of accomplishment. Two hours from top to bottom (including 20 minutes at the top). Entry fee 1 Euro/Dollar/GBP roughly.

Penyengat Island

Reviewed By bjt1107

This was one of our highlights on our trip to Asia. Our teens loved it. The people were friendly and beautiful. We took the private boat charter with our taxi driver so he could interpret for us. On the island we did the tuk tuk tour which is a must. It was an adventure as the boat going over seemed quite questionable but it added to the experience. Do not miss this!

White Sands Island

Reviewed By G1483UHdanielk - Broadbeach, Australia

If you visit Bintan and stay at the west part of Bintan island (we stayed at the Residence), this place is worth to visit. We went there on Monday morning with the kids. Definitely exceeded my expectation. We bought the ticket directly at the small marina, it was cheap @Rp 125k/person. This includes boat from Bintan and free lunch (nasi goreng or mie goreng). Depending on your objective, you need to pick and choose the time. We went there @9am. The place is very quiet in the morning so very convenient for the kids. It seems in the afternoon/evening, the place is more crowded. The beach is clean with white sands and no corals. You can do kayak for free.

Lagoi Bay Lantern Park

Reviewed By andy_8584 - Singapore, Singapore

Lagoi Bay Lantern park is just next to Grand Lagoi by Nirwana. It’s a great place to visit in the evening where you can see each and every animal designed with lanterns and lights. Kids will have a great time, it’s a different experience if you want to click some great pics in the night with the lantern lit lights.
