Island Hopping to Tun Sakaran Marine Park
Tun Sakaran Marine Park, also referred to as the Semporna Islands Park, is a stunning marine sanctuary located off the east coast of Sabah. This park is celebrated for its immaculate white-sand beaches and boasts Malaysia’s largest coral reef system, making it an idyllic destination for snorkelling and marine exploration. As you dip beneath the surface, you will be greeted by a vibrant underwater world teeming with colourful corals and fascinating marine life. Each island within the park presents its own unique character, inviting you to explore, unwind, and fully immerse yourself in the natural beauty of this remarkable seascape.
Bohey Dulang, often affectionately called Sleeping Beauty Island, is home to a pearl farm and features a 600-metre hill. A short hike to the summit rewards adventurers with breathtaking panoramic views of the Tun Sakaran Marine Park, allowing for a truly unforgettable experience. For those seeking guidance, an optional hiking guide is available (hiking guide fees not included), with the hike taking approximately 1.5 to 2 hours for a round trip.
Next, Mantabuan Island beckons with its vibrant reefs and crystal-clear waters, making it a snorkelling paradise. Here, you can swim among colourful fish or enjoy leisurely walks along the pristine beaches, capturing the beauty of the surroundings through your lens.
Finally, Sibuan Island offers a long stretch of white-sand beach, adorned with swaying coconut trees. Its crystal-clear waters provide excellent opportunities for snorkelling and photography, allowing you to capture the stunning marine life and scenic vistas.
Throughout your journey, you will also have the chance to engage with the Bajau people, often referred to as “sea gypsies.” Renowned for their exceptional diving and fishing skills, they lead a traditional sea-based lifestyle that is both fascinating and enriching.
