Observation Area A
A huge open area wooden platform and a long wooden walkway meandered over a swampy mangrove area. You were able to see lots & lots of Proboscis monkeys at this sanctuary in fairly close proximity. And the food provided by the ranger is guava and cucumber.

Observation Area B
Platform B is also the venue where Silver Leaf Monkeys occasionally visit. They would often come unannounced. They might come three to four times a week during the feeding time. So visitors will have to keep their finger cross if they want to meet this cute little silver colour monkey. Their small infant sports a different colour altogether in the colour orange to a gold hue. Platform B is also often visited by a pair of Oriental Pie Hornbills. So visitors not only get to see Proboscis Monkeys, they also have a good chance to encounter with the Silver Leaf Monkey and Oriental Pie Hornbills. No wonder most foreign visitors who have visited the Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary, gave the place a big thumb up.
