The more developed of the group is Sibu Island. A
pleasent hideaway, it abounds with lush tropical vegetation and endless
stretches of golden beaches. On the seaward side of island are numerous sea
caves carved out of its rocks. The result of constant pounding by the sea during
the monsoon season, it gives the island beautiful yet rugged
appearance.

marine life. Shipwrecks off its coast may also be found. Chinese junks and
pirate vessels often, exchange cannon fire around this island, and the remains
of these battles lie scattered around the seabed.
