Why is Damang Island called “Big Mango Island”? Damang Island, a lush, uninhabited island near Zhuhai, seems almost close enough to touch from here. Its real name, however, offers a clue. In Chinese, it’s known as “Dà Máng Dǎo,” meaning “Big Mango Island.” This tropical paradise, nestled in the Pearl River estuary, earned its name from the abundance of mango trees that once flourished here. Damang Island is a short distance from the Zhuhai Gaolan Port Economic Zone and Hebao Island. It’s also about 100 km southwest of Hong Kong. While uninhabited now, Damang Island is a designated ecotourism destination and research station. Its relatively small size, 5.2 square kilometers, belies its rich biodiversity. Within its tropical rainforest, over 600 ornamental plant species thrive, including Podocarpus, Syzygium, and Emblica. Damang Island provides a haven for rare wildlife, too. Deer, monkeys, and turtles are among the ten rare animal species found here. Exploring Damang Island offers a glimpse into a well-preserved ecosystem, a reminder of nature’s beauty and resilience. It is truly an untouched jewel in the South China Sea.
