A 35-acre island nestled within the idyllic setting of Bukit Merah Laketown Resort, an eco-friendly 7000-acre freshwater lakeside vacation getaway in Semanggol, Perak – Orang Utan Island is today a global eco-tourism destination.
Since its inception in 2000, Orang Utan Island has progressed from being a sanctuary, where visitors experienced first-hand awareness and education on the orangutan, to a recognized conservation facility and referral centre for the endangered Bornean orangutan. A visit to Orang Utan Island will convince anyone why the orangutan has endeared itself as a symbol of Malaysia.
Get up close and personal with the endangered orangutans cared for on the island. Witness them play in their own habitat and swing from tree to tree.

This Orangutan conservation is amazing. The guide was excellent in telling us the story of how each Orangutan came to be at the conservation. We got up close and saw nine out of the fifteen Orangutang that are currently on the Island. The staff do an amazing job rehabilitating the Orangutans ready for life back into the wild.
