FISH MASSAGE (Kg. Luanti)

Shophouse for visitors...

On the 13th of July, I and my parents had visited this place of interest; Kg.Luanti at "Tagal" Sungai Moroli, Ranau...It is 131 kilometers from Kota Kinabalu (about 2 hours and 40 minutes drive away) & located around 30minutes drive from Ranau Town and it is located just beside the Sabah Tea plantation in Ranau. U can identify it by looking for the signboard....Quite big...hoho...

This place give a service of fish massage "spa"...
I been told that most of the fish in the river is Pelian, Kelah, Turongou species. ~But mostly seen is Pelian.

there is to many of it...

In the Local Kadazandusun dialect, ‘tagal’ means ‘no fishing’, and the main purpose of the ‘tagal’ is to preserve the environment as well as the ecosystem to benefit the future generation. ‘Ikan Pelian’ or Malaysian Mahseer comes from the family of Cyprinidae (Sabah Tourism Board, 2010).

These fishes are specifically trained by the villagers to perform the healing massage activities. The ticket fee (if i'm not mistaken la...lupa2 jgk ni..hehe..for local is RM5 for adult and Rm2 for Kids). This ticket is juz for 15minutes of fish biting experience which is a new awesome feeling to try.

It is a very interesting moment and experience to be there...u should go there too as well.

The way the fish give a massage to u, the fish bite ur skin, toes...and even when u feed them...they eventually absorb voraciously... woow... ~kewl dude...
