Few people outside know this destination; besides its location in a remote village, there is still a lack of manual and digital publications regarding this tourist attraction. Community Service Program students learned about the existence of Tempelekan Island tourist attraction when they first visited Simatang Tanjung Village. Next, direct observations were conducted on Tempelekan Island to identify its various potentials, including the richness of flora and fauna that are still natural and well-preserved.
