Labuan-Cermin-Lake 

To reach Labuan Cermin Lake, visitors must ride the canoe fishermen and travel pass for 15 minutes, penetrating scrub and mangrove forests. The forest was still inhabited by a variety of wild animals such as monkeys, proboscis monkeys, otters and bears.

Because the distance is quite far from the city, rarely or almost no tourists who visit here. This place is only known by the local people from the surrounding area. Facilities and infrastructure was still sober.



 
 Base there is a Fisherman Information Center (PIN) assisted The Nature Conservancy, environmental preservation activist organizations. PIN-shaped house on stilts at the edge of the mouth of a river, just a few hundred meters from the sea. The house had some sort of a small pier where boats moored.
 
 
This unique lake which has two streams of water where the top of Labuan Cermin Lake contains freshwater such as lakes in general . But there are a few feet below the flow of salt water . Surprisingly, these two types of water are not mixed . In plain can be seen that the sea water and fresh water are separated by a similar layer of clouds .
 
until now there has been none among academics who are interested in doing research in this area so that the formation of this phenomenon is still a mystery . Still a conjecture that the white turbid layer occurs due to the results of the basic decomposition harbor organisms that are trapped and can not go. Two types of water in the lake is also presenting two organisms of the world . Freshwater fish live on the surface , while saltwater fish can be found at the bottom of the lake .Salty water can be found at a depth of about 2 meters from the surface of the lake. Apparently the thickness of the layer of freshwater and saltwater can be changed according to the tidal sea water .This tiny lake surrounded by forest and the towering cliff on one side . Not surprisingly, the lake is named Labuan Cermin, until the water is clear so people can reflect on it . Currents in some places quite strong and easy to drag people who can not swim .
 
River in front of the PIN brackish water. The water salinity depends on tidal sea water. When the sea receded, the river became very clear that the principle can be seen clearly. From the porch we could see the fish milling about. There are many prickly fish, there are fish that sting and long flat-bodied fish.
