This village is located on the east side of Kao Bay, and is the site of the most easily accessible display area of Wallace’s standardwing, which was filmed by the BBC for “Attenborough in Paradise” in 1995. the tree is in an area of limestone forest a 4-km trek from the village. There is a shelter in the forest and the villagers are organized with tarpaulin and cooking equipment to run a pleasant jungle camp.
Getting there
There is no public transport to this site and you will need Anu to take you there. Unfortunately the trip is currently expensive-$750 per group-because there are only two speedboats to hire for the 2-hr crossing. Anu has an arrangement with the village head that every visiting bird group will make a donation (included in the price) to pay for guarding the display area. If you get to Labi-labi independently, please support this system. The speedboats leave either from Kao or Toebelo.
