There are many beautiful sights in the world from various countries. In Indonesia, especially in West Kalimantan Province, there are tourism places that is charming and inexpensive that you should visit when you come to West Kalimantan. One of them is located in Bengkayang Regency, there are beautiful islands like Randayan Island, Lemukutan Island, and Kabung Island. 
Lemukutan Island became the next destination. The largest island at Bengkayang Regency about 7567 hectares, larger than the island of Great Stylists with 4,675 Ha. Lemukutan island is flanked by small islands, such as Randayan and Kabung. Bengkayang has 12 small islands with abundant natural resources. Only five of the 12 islands, inhabited by people.
  Cluster of colorful corals will be more clearly seen while climbing the depth of water on the island between two to three meters are very easy for the novice diver. On the seabed we can enjoy a wide range of colorful marine plants, tropical fish beautiful and diverse. Not many people know the origin of the name Lemukutan, but from the many existing folklore, if we look at the topography of the island is like a body of an ox.  
Wilderness conditions, naturally maintained by the community, making this island is still very natural. Clear water, causing sea floor with colorful coral plants, can be seen directly from the boat. Can also see that cultivated seaweed communities. Overnight on the island is really exciting. Unlike in Randayan that provides cottage, on the island, visitors can stay at home residents who had been prepared for visitors. Visitors can taste the sweetness of squid and fish fresh from the fisherman. One part of the island is shaped like a steep ravine. This is where the beauty of the underwater world can be found.
