Jarak Island (Malay: Pulau Jarak / ڤولاو جارق) is an island in the straits of Malacca. It is administered as part of Perak, Malaysia. The island is granitic, heavily forested, and has a rocky shoreline.[1][2] Jarak has been described as being 8 hectares (20 acres) in size.[2]
The island is home to an endemic species of gecko, the Jarak Island bent-toed gecko (Cyrtodactylus jarakensis).[3] The waters around the island host a number of coral reefs.[2]
A notable, extensive survey of the island was documented by John Wyatt-Smith and Michael Tweedie in 1950, who were part of an expedition investigating scrub typhus on the island.[4]
