Tasik Merimbun, Brunei

Tasik Merimbun is the biggest lake in Brunei. Located 27 km from Tutong, the lake is surrounded by the Merimbun Heritage Park, a 7800 hectare park that was gazetted as an Asean Heritage Park.

Tasik Merimbun has a dark colour. This is due the dye from natural tannin that comes from the leaves falling into the water. The lake supports a rich variety of fauna including birds, mammals and reptiles. Visitors can hire a boat (for B$30 per hour) to take them around to explore the lake and its two islands.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.

To get to know me better, do follow me on Facebook!
