Sights in Tarakan

  1. Mangrove Forest

    See two Borneo exclusives, proboscis monkeys and ikan tempankul - a fish that walks out of the water - at the mangrove forest, 300m from the town centre. Spread over nine hectares with shaded boardwalks and benches, the mangroves also shelter macaques and many bird species.

  2. WWII Memorials

    Japanese and Australian forces clashed bloodily over Tarakan late in World War II. There's an Australian memorial (kuburan Australia) at the Indonesian military barracks. A Japanese gravesite (kuburan Jepang) is in nearby hills, amid old bunkers.
