Dreaming of that tropical esca

Dreaming of that tropical escape? Here’s my unforgettable island-hopping adventure in Semporna, Sabah — easily the highlight reel of this trip! 🌴✨ If you love crystal-clear waters and panoramic views, Semporna seriously delivers.

Must-See Places:
Bohey Dulang Island ⛰️
Kick off with a short but sweaty 700m hike up Bohey Dulang. Trust me, the epic views at the top are worth every step! Bring good shoes — the path gets steep and rocky.

Pulau Mantabuan 🏝️
This island is all about chill vibes. Grab lunch on the beach and soak in the turquoise water. No worries, lunch is provided and there is unlimited water to keep you hydrated.

Pulau Sibuan 🏝️
End your day here — Sibuan’s shallow reefs are perfect for snorkeling. The marine life is next level! If you’re new to snorkeling, the calm waters make it super beginner-friendly.

Top Tips:
– Pack light but don’t skip reef-safe sunscreen and insect repellent.
– Most day tours include boat rides from Semporna, so book with a reliable operator via trip.com for smooth sailing.

Getting Around:
Semporna town is the base; most boat tours depart early morning. Local taxis are cheap and easy, but arranging transport in advance saves time.

Food Alert:
Lunch options are basic on Mantabuan — most tours do provide lunch in the package, so choose wisely 😉
