Labuan Botanical Garden
The Labuan Botanical Garden — also known as Taman Botani Labuan — is a pristinely landscaped park with tropical plants, fruit trees, and flowers. In addition to orchids, bougainvillea, hibiscus, and lilies, you can take in the tranquil grounds, which include a picturesque arched bridge straddling a man-made waterway.
Labuan Marine Park
Hire a boat from the Labuan International Sea Sports Complex and head to one of four wrecks that make up this protected snorkeling and dive site a few miles southwest of the main island. Along with coral, sponge, and sea fans, you’ll also see turtles and frogfish darting in and around Cement Wreck, Blue Water Wreck, American Wreck, and Australian Wreck, all sitting at around 30 meters below the water’s surface. You’ll need special certification to explore the American Wreck.
Peace Park
Peace Park is a lush beachside park that stretches along Labuan’s west coast and serves as a symbol of peace after World War II. The park, built next to Surrender Point by the Japanese Government, features a stone plaque memorializing those who lost their lives during the war. The memorial is a white-stone arched wall, blanketed in vibrant green grass, with an inscription to peace written in English, Malay, and Japanese. You’ll also find the House of Culture and Art Gallery on the property, in addition to meticulously maintained gardens, gazebos, bridges, and ponds.
