Manukan Island snorkeling

The driver contacted me on WhatsApp the day before, so the pick-up went smoothly. It's 10 to 15 minutes from the port, so if you don't get seasick easily, I don't think you need to take any medicine. When you arrive, they will explain the schedule and precautions. It's written in easy-to-understand English, so I think even people who aren't good at English can understand it. I was told that the staff would look after my luggage and that there was a surveillance camera, so I was fine leaving my luggage on the sofa. When snorkeling, they will tell you where to find fish. Afterwards, we had a BBQ, SUP and kayaking activities, and ended with high tea. You can also ride a water bike as an option, which I have never experienced, but it looked like it would be fun. When we got tired, we all rested in hammocks. Shampoo and body soap are provided in the shower area, bath towels can be rented for 10RM, paper towels are provided in the toilet, and there is a place to change clothes, so I was able to enjoy my stay with peace of mind. The BBQ was delicious and the hospitality of the staff was excellent. There aren't many foreign tourists, so I think it's a little-known spot!

One of my favorite tours ever! Beach is so beautiful. Wayne did a great job in accommodating us from start to finish. The vibe of the beach is so nice and food is good too, will do this again when we visit Sabah!

must see attractions in kota kinabalu. these places are very relaxing and prestine. the schedule of the tours also give time for other water activities at your own expense.

The day I went, Mamutik was too crowded so tour guide Tommy suggested going to Sapi Island, and I felt great. Thank you Tommy for being so enthusiastic and kind. I dropped my phone in the sea, Tommy dived for a long time to find it for me, plus another reason to travel on a tour like this because there will be someone to take care of it when a problem occurs. Thanks Tommy again!

Great tour!!! We were picked up at our hotel and brought to the pier. Our boat driver was waiting for us there. We boarded our private boat and made a quick journey to a beautiful cove with crystal clear water and so much marine life to see!!! This was easy snorkeling great for families. life jackets and gear provided and calm water with places to stand if you wanted to or you could swim out further to adventure more if you wanted as well. The lunch was at a fish farm and we were delighted to be shown around the different tanks. We were able to hold a horseshoe crab and a little buffer fish and we even pet a friendly shark. My 14 and 11 year old were delighted by all of it but it would have been great with younger or older kiddos too. The boat took us by tree covered areas of flying foxes too! Highly recommend!

The one-day tour was exceptionally well-organized, it felt like not a single minute was wasted... Mantanani Island's white sand and turquoise sea are truly beautiful. The crew members fed a lot of bread at the snorkeling spot, attracting many beautiful fish, making me feel surrounded by schools of fish. In the evening, the mangrove night tour allowed us to see many fireflies. The crew members used lights to attract the fireflies, as if we were in a fairy tale world. We even saw a tree covered in fireflies, resembling a Christmas tree with lights, corresponding to the twinkling stars in the sky, washing away the fatigue of busy city life for every tourist. The only regret was not seeing proboscis monkeys during the afternoon mangrove cruise, but travel is all about having some regrets, so we have the motivation for our next trip! Secondly, I must emphasize how enthusiastic, gentle, polite, and experienced the tour guide Nelson was. He took great care of us throughout the entire trip, arranging for us to sit in the best spots on the boat for optimal viewing and travel experience. He helped us watch our belongings so we could take photos with peace of mind. A big thumbs up for Nelson! 👍

It's a longer boat ride (1 hour+) compared to the nearer islands of KK, but worth it for the pristine waters and soft sand. Instagram worthy. Snorkeling gear was good and we got 2 locations to snorkel in.

Easy booking, suitable for first timer and non swimmer friendly. We were picked up from the hotel on time, greeted by our friendly guides. They brought us to the sea near mamutik island and we snorkelled around there, away from the crowd. there were lots of clown and dory fishes to spot. After done snorkeling, we were given free time to lounge around the island before having lunch. We get to pick our choice of lunch and the foods are good. I enjoyed the time we spent and the duration is just nice as we can fit in other activities in the evening. Another point to take note, the guides constantly looking after us ensuring our safety and also help us took pictures with their GoPro. Overall, it's a very enjoying experience 😁
