Morning light skims the mangroves as you ease a 125cc scooter into first gear — the island opens like a map beneath you. Coastal roads roll past limestone cliffs and roadside stalls; the sea hovers to your left while rainforest climbs to your right. Stops come easy: the 12-meter eagle at Eagle Square poses for photos, waterfalls hide under canopies, and Tanjung Rhu’s sand repeats each footprint you leave.
