Top Malaysia Paddleboarding

Enjoy a safe and fun stand-up paddleboarding experience at Tanjung Aru Beach, home to one of the world's most famous sunsets! We highly recommend stand-up paddleboarding in Sabah! First, a big shout-out to our coach! The coach was very responsible, dedicated, and humorous in their teaching. They provided careful guidance throughout the process and paid attention to everyone's safety, making our first stand-up paddleboarding experience completely stress-free and incredibly fun! After placing our order, the travel agency promptly contacted us to confirm the itinerary. The staff were friendly and patient, and the pick-up was very punctual. The entire process made us feel very reassured. The biggest fear when traveling is not being able to reach someone after booking an itinerary or uncertainty about pick-up, but this time, we had none of those issues. From booking and communication to pick-up and the on-site experience, everything was very reassuring. Stand-up paddleboarding is truly a blast!

The coaches were nice, the activity are fun and exciting. But if u wanna play it, remember to go toilet before arrived the beach, cause there is no toilet near the beach.

Excellent experience! The location is right within Shangrila hotel and easy to find. Our coach taught us well about the instructions and followed through your lesson to make sure everything went safe. He was super attentive and came to you straightaway once you fell. Thank you Zik and Sushi!

Very professional SUP guiding team. instruction was thorough yet fun, and we all managed to stand up in no time. Got to explore the area’s sandbar and coral bar. Weather was awesome and we even got to see Mount Kinabalu from afar. Saw several other paddling groups out there in the sea, and could not help notice that they were all sitting down, and even some were being towed around in the sea. Lucky our own guide didn’t do that and gave us the freedom to paddle independently instead. Not the cheapest operator out there, but definitely worth every cent. Plus all the Borneo Paddle Monkeys guides are equipped with GoPro cameras, and they gave us plenty of high quality photos and videos after the session. Unforgettable experience. Highly recommended.

Really great guide, Afandy had a lot of great info on the history and animals during the kayaking, plenty of funny stories. Saw lots of giant jellyfish due to extreme tides, but that meant visibility was not great. Still saw lots of fish, and even got nibbled by a few fish.
