First stop: Manukan Island, the second largest island in Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park. Known for its clear waters, well-maintained beaches, and excellent facilities, Manukan is ideal for swimming, snorkeling, or simply unwinding by the sea. For those who enjoy light exploration, short nature trails offer a different view of the island’s tropical landscape.
Next, continue to Sapi Island, a compact yet stunning island famous for its powdery white sand and rich marine life. Just a short boat ride from Kota Kinabalu, Sapi Island is one of the best spots for beach snorkeling, where colorful reef fish often swim close to shore including Parrotfish and Napoleon fish.
This twin-island experience balances relaxation and light adventure, making it perfect for families, couples, and first-time visitors to Sabah who want a stress-free island day without rushing.
