#kapalai "Absolutely stunning resort! The bungalows were spacious, well-maintained, and had breathtaking ocean views. We loved waking up to the sound of the waves and enjoying breakfast on our private balcony. The diving experience was unforgettable, with healthy coral reefs and plenty of marine life, including turtles and reef sharks. The service was top-notch, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay. The only minor downside was the slightly high price, but for the experience and comfort, it was worth every penny. Highly recommended for a romantic getaway or diving adventure!"

Release a baby sea turtle Watch the Bajau people rowing their boats Take photos on the sandbar Stay in a water villa Snorkeling in Mataking Bargain at the seafood market - ❤️ Release a baby sea turtle Resorts like Mataking, White Pearl, and Dragon Pearl have their own sea turtle conservation bases. When baby sea turtles hatch, the resort will notify you of the release time the next day. You can participate and watch the baby sea turtles run towards the sea. It's very healing. - ❤️ Watch the Bajau people rowing their boats You can stay in MWB water villa or join the Kapalai + Mabul Island island hopping day tour. You can see the small wooden boats sailing on the jelly sea, carrying seafood and coconuts. Take a set of "seafood stalls" cultural photos. Coconuts are about 5 Malaysian Ringgit each. - ❤️ Take photos on the sandbar There are two island hopping routes. The Mataking 3 Islands route goes to Timba Timba Sandbar, and the Tun Sakaran Marine Park route goes to Warship Island Sandbar. If you stay at Mataking Resort, you can also go to their private sandbar, which is even more beautiful. - ❤️ Stay in a water villa Stay in a secluded wooden house on the sea. Take photos on the flower-filled wooden plank road, watch the sunset and stars on the balcony. It's romantic and comfortable, but you must stay in a water villa with good water quality. Otherwise, snorkeling is not worth it, and photos are not good. The ceiling of Semporna water villa: Kapalai - ❤️ Snorkeling in Mataking If you don't have a diving certificate, you can go snorkeling in Mataking. There are many fish, sea turtles, and corals. The sea is very clear. It's a feast for the eyes! Island hopping route: Mataking 3 Islands - ❤️ Bargain at the seafood market Take a bunch of seafood you've bargained for to the restaurant for processing. It's very rewarding. You can put down your "i" and bargain with your voice. When the local black people get angry, they will speak some random Chinese words. You are beautiful, but you have no money... - For information and booking of Semporna itinerary, please click on the link below to consult customer service -

#malaysiatrip My life advice is to go to the water house in Senbuna once. So, staying at Mabul Water Bungalow for five years is an experience of three days and two nights. The one day tour route chosen for this old place revisit is Ma Bu Island. Check in and take a look. This is MWB, not Caparai. Go up to the island and see 630 Malaysian Ringgit per person. Under the sunshine, the waves and depths are still beautiful. There are many small fish groups under the house, and their hearts are straight out of the original plan. During the one day tour, there are three hours to stop here. Two hours to play and one hour to eat lunch. Don't miss this route if you like to take photos.

The sea in Semporna is beautiful, but don't come if you don't have a good strategy from July to September, otherwise you will find it a rip-off. I have compiled a copy for you. If you find it useful, remember to turn it on and save it♥️. There are occasional house discounts~ ✈️Transportation in Semporna Semporna is just a small fishing village. Many cities have opened direct flights to Tawau Airport. After arriving at Tawau Airport, you need to take a car for about an hour to reach Semporna town. 🏨Accommodation in Semporna ▪️Hotels in Semporna Town: The price of hotels in town is relatively cheap, basically calculated by room. When choosing, choose those close to the pier and restaurants, such as Grace Seaview, Lighthouse, etc. ▪️Water House: It is not that you can go for the one with the word "water house" in it without thinking. Some water houses are built by local residents and cannot even meet the 24-hour water and electricity supply! If you have the conditions, you can go directly to Kapalai and MWB. If you pursue cost-effectiveness, you can go to Jelly Sea, Xinjia Motor, etc. ▪️Sand House: I personally think that sand houses are really not inferior to water houses, and the activity space is also larger! No brainer, go for Mataking Caihu Resort with two islands and one hotel and Arcadia Resort with one island and one hotel 🌸Semporna Tour ✅3 island hopping tours Mataking-Tingba-Tingba-Bangbang Island Mabul Island-Kapalai Dunsa Lanka Marine Park island hopping (Pearl Island + Gunkanjima + Mandabu Bay Island) ✅Feel the romance of fireflies in the mangroves, look for proboscis monkeys, and watch the beautiful sunset ✅Unlimited water activities in Lover's Bay ✅Experience the fun of Semporna's special sea fishing ✅Check in at Sipadan, a world-famous diving paradise ☘️Semporna food ✔️Tiger prawns: huge in size, sweet and elastic in texture, usually can be cooked with wet or dry butter Cooked in a traditional way ✔️Elephant Trunk Clam: It is a precious seafood with delicious taste ✔️Nyonya cuisine: It combines the characteristics of Chinese cuisine and Malay cuisine, and has a unique taste, such as curry chicken, nasi lemak, etc. ✔️Bak Kut Teh: A special food of Malaysia, usually enjoyed as breakfast.
