Also, don’t forget to bring your power bank. After all, we will be out all day, and you may need your phone to take photos, navigate, etc. 📱Second, I cannot stress the importance of a frequently used mobile phone. Make sure you have enough data, or buy a local calling card at the airport. Network coverage is comprehensive and the cost is not high. 🎫Third, documents are also very important. Although Malaysia is visa-free for Chinese tourists, your passport and mainland China ID card are still required. If you plan to rent a car and drive yourself, you will also need to bring an international driving license. 👕Fourth, Malaysia has a tropical rainforest climate in January. The corresponding clothing should mainly be short-sleeved, shorts and beachwear. At the same time, bring an umbrella or raincoat to prevent sudden tropical rain. Also, bring a pair of comfortable walking shoes for long hours of play. . Malaysia, a tropical paradise with diverse cultures, is waiting for you to explore and find your unique story on this journey. Come together and stroll through this corner of the world.

Manukan Island

Sun-kissed Paradise at Manukan Island 🏖️🌊 Escape to the jewel-toned waters and powdery sands of Manukan Island, Kota Kinabalu’s dreamy getaway for ocean lovers and sun seekers! With its private beach vibes, stunning scenery, and comfy facilities, this island promises a blissful retreat packed with personal space and Insta-ready views. Start your adventure early to enjoy uninterrupted serenity—catch the first boat over and claim a cozy lounger before the main crowds arrive. Snorkeling is the absolute must-do here: the underwater world is dazzling with vibrant coral gardens and swirls of tropical fish, just steps from the shore! Don’t forget to pack a waterproof camera for those vivid aquatic shots or a GoPro for selfie action amongst the colorful marine life. For show-stopping photos, hit the sunrise or sunset hours—the views across the open sea are mesmerizing then, casting golden hues on gentle waves. The food scene is simple but satisfying—fresh grilled seafood on the beach is a treat after your swim. If you crave extra privacy, wander a bit farther from the main area; there are tucked-away stretches where you’ll practically have the sand to yourself. A few pro tips: Bring reef-safe sunscreen, as the sun here is strong and the marine life deserves protecting. Water shoes are bonus for rocky patches near the shore. Lifeguards are present during the day, but do double-check tide times if venturing out deeper. With friendly staff and well-maintained amenities, comfort comes easy—but bring some cash for small snacks and rentals. #KotaKinabalu #ManukanIsland #BeachEscape #Snorkeling #TravelAsia
