If coming from the South - go to waypoint 1. @ 5° 59' North x 115° 59' East; then go to Waypoint 2. @ 5° 59' North x 116° 00' East, then head for the Marina breakwater and enter from the north side.
If coming from the North keep west of Gaya Island until south of it - then go to the above waypoints.
Come in on a heading of 090°T, keeping Tanjung Waking a ½ mile to port. When at Tanjung Wakong, turn towards Sutera Harbour Resort, course 128°T. Note: This approach is using Admiralty Chart #3626. However, the most recent chart does not indicate Sutera Harbour Resort's location. Furthermore,the charted depth outside the Marina is no longer accurate, as the Marina channel has been dredged and expanded. The average dept at lowest astronomical tide (LAT) is 5 meters inside the basin and outside the breakwater is more than 7 metres.
