Ting å gjøre i Tunku Abdul Rahman Park

me and my husband booked onto this trip a bit last minute, just the day before. we had confirmation texts straight away, pick up times and reg details of the car that would be picking us up in the morning. it arrived a few mins early and we were driven to the nearby jetty where two guides were waiting for just two of us. we were issued life jackets and snorkels and after a 20 minute wait, we boarded our speed boat over to the first island, Manukan. it is absolutely stunning, white sand fringed by huge forest trees giving lots of shade, clear blue sea with an abundance of fish swimming around our feet. unfortunately there was also a lot of rubbish in the sea, plastic bottles and packaging everywhere, such a shame that people treat our beautiful planet like this, it’s a national park and we could see people collecting rubbish off the sand but not possible in the sea. we stayed for 3 hours and were bought lunch before going on to Sapi. Both beautiful islands and we had a lovely day.

In a group of about 20-30 people, only two of us were Japanese. Most of the participants were Chinese, and the tour was primarily conducted in Chinese. However, our guide made sure to explain things to us in English whenever necessary and constantly looked out for us. The high-speed cruise ship took a little over an hour to reach the island. It was incredibly fast and quite bumpy! 😂 But because the ship was so fast, we didn't even have time to get seasick, which was a plus, haha. The guides played music on board, making the travel time enjoyable. The island facilities were new and clean. Toilets, shower rooms, and even hair dryers were available, ensuring a comfortable stay. Before snorkeling, there was a safety briefing. For the two of us, a staff member provided a one-on-one explanation, showing us translated safety precautions in Japanese. They also checked repeatedly to ensure we understood everything, and we felt that safety was very well-considered. For snorkeling, the boat took us to two different spots. The ocean was truly beautiful and amazing! 🐠 The guides constantly checked on us, ensuring our safety while also making sure we had a great time. After returning to the island, a luxurious meal of crab, shrimp, and other dishes was prepared, and drinks were available freely 🦀🦐. Afterward, we had free time. We relaxed under a parasol on the beach. When it was time, we boarded the super-fast cruise ship again for the return journey. Since it was an early morning tour, we were quite tired by the time we headed back, but it was a fulfilling day nonetheless. My only regret is that I forgot to give a tip to our kind guide when we left. They were so helpful until the very end. Since about 90% of the participants are Chinese, Japanese participants might feel a little uneasy at first if they join alone. However, there were many guides and staff members who paid very close attention to us Japanese participants, so in the end, we had a wonderful time without any worries. The ocean was beautiful, snorkeling was fun, and the food was luxurious. Above all, the warm support from all the staff left a lasting impression. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who might be hesitant because of the small number of Japanese participants! 🌴🐠✨

Manukan-øya var ikke dårlig, men jeg anbefaler virkelig Mamutik-øya. Jeg tok to turer og besøkte alle øyene Gaya, Sapi, Mamutik og Manukan. Mamutik-øya var den beste av de fire øyene. Det var ikke bare fordi været var bra den dagen, men korallene på øya var så godt bevart at jeg så flere fisker der enn på de tre andre øyene til sammen. Jeg skulle ønske vannet hadde vært litt klarere den dagen jeg var der, men det var likevel utrolig vakkert og flott. Guiden var også vennlig og veldig bra. Anbefales på det sterkeste!

It was such a wonderful experience! Our guide, Sui, was incredibly kind and helpful, which made us feel comfortable and well taken care of throughout the entire day. We truly enjoyed every moment. Thank you so much! I would definitely recommend this experience to everyone!

It was great! I did free snorkeling and parasailing at Sapi Island, and I highly recommend visiting at least one island while you're here. It's absolutely fantastic once you get out into the open sea. It's a bit scary, but it feels amazing. Finding or meeting at the harbor can be a bit difficult, but you just need to go to the Sea Quest office at 8:30 AM! They open at 8:30 AM. The staff are also kind and great!

Vi hadde det så gøy på partybåten! Alt var fantastisk fra start til slutt. Aktivitetene var godt organisert og gikk knirkefritt, noe som gjorde hele opplevelsen hyggelig og stressfri. Mannskapet og båtguiden vår var utrolig vennlige, hjelpsomme og fikk oss til å føle oss veldig velkomne under hele turen.

It was nice that it wasn't crowded. There were many cheap options, but the reviews weren't good, so I carefully read the reviews and chose this one, and it was definitely a good choice. Our guide diligently found all the best spots for us, and I'm so grateful. We saw lobsters, Nemo, and more.

Good quality! Introductory scuba diving is definitely worth a try! The equipment is basic, but has everything you need. Since I have 900 degrees of nearsightedness, the instructor later found a prescription mask for me. There were three other people from English-speaking countries that day, and although I was the only Chinese speaker in the group, they assigned a Chinese-speaking instructor just for me. It was a pretty great experience!

Alt i alt hadde vi en flott dag med snorkling på 3 forskjellige steder. Vi klarte å se noen Nemo-fisker! Forvent litt ventetid om morgenen før dere kommer dere på båtene. Men ellers, når båten henter oss etter snorkle-/dykkeøktene, er det en veldig enkel prosess å følge. Vi hadde Chong som vår snorkleguide, som var veldig hjelpsom med å peke ut hvor visse fisker var, slik at vi fikk et glimt av sjødyrene og nøt tiden vår mer. Lunsjen som ble servert var enkel, men ganske god – vi spiste sopp- og kyllingris. Jeg husker ikke navnet på den andre kjøreguiden og båtføreren, men de var også flotte. Takk til dette teamet :)
