| Title Statement |
|
| General Note |
- General note - The largest of seven islets composing the Turtle Islands, Taganak was once the haven of British excursionists from North Borneo (now Sabah). Less than 12 nautical miles from Sandakan and some 70 nautical miles northwest of Jolo, the island has white sandy beaches and a palm-fringed shoreline. The water around the Turtle Islands vary in depth from 72 to 210 feet where marine turtles thrive and prefer laying eggs along sandy beaches far from inhabited areas like Taganak. Note the trail made on the sand by a female turtle.
