Penang National Park - Meromictic Lake<br> Penang picture - During low tides and dry seasons, the lake becomes a field of mudflats, with hardy, terrestrial grass. During spring tides, seawater enters through a one metre wide opening to fill the lake slowly. The two layers of fresh and seawater never mix, hence the name meromictic.
