While Salah Namo island is another small island which is only about half an hour drive from Pandang island . This island has different characteristics with Pulau Pandang which has white sandy beaches and rocky beaches. Beach on Salah Namo island is not so wide because the edge of the island is dominated by rocks that form a steep cliff nan high.

Around the island there is also a cluster of rocks that stick out from the seabed and separated from the main island. The location of the cluster of corals is slightly dangerous because the water currents rotate due to the ocean currents that hit the cluster of corals. But from Salah Namo island , we can see the cluster of coral is quite clear because on the island has provided a special spot that leads to the cluster of corals.

Salah Namo island has been well managed to welcome tourists. Here there is a trail of concrete that divides the island so that tourists can enjoy the natural beauty of the island. The shady trees and birds become the decorative beauty of this island as tourists explore the island.
