A paradise just 15 minutes away from Kota Kinabalu

Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia 🇲🇾 Even though it's the rainy season, we managed to squeeze in a 1-day trip to Sapi Island during a sunny break 🏖️ Boats to Sapi Island and other nearby islands depart from the "Jesselton Point Ferry Terminal" 🛥️ You can choose between visiting 1 to 4 islands, and the price varies depending on your choice 🏖️🏝️🏖️🏝️ This time, we only visited Sapi Island, and the round-trip fare was 35 RM (approximately 1,200 yen) per person 🐥 Although we had booked the 11:00 AM boat, it ended up departing around 11:30 AM 😅 Be cautious—if you hesitate, you might never get on the boat 🙈 The ride to Sapi Island takes about 15–20 minutes‼︎ It's the perfect distance (haha). The water clarity was decent, and as you venture further out, you'll find more fish 🐠 Wearing a life jacket is mandatory when entering the water, and rentals cost 10 RM (approximately 340 yen)! Snorkel rentals are also available for 10 RM (approximately 340 yen) 🤿 I brought my GoPro, but unfortunately, water leaked into the case, and I lost all the data 😭 Luckily, the camera itself was fine... Showers are available for free 🚿 There are places to eat, so you can spend a relaxing day there 😌 Don't forget to bring a towel and sunscreen! 📍Sapi Island K.K, Sapi Island, Kota Kinabalu, 88000, Sabah, Malaysia
