Hal yang dilakukan

My first destination is Manukan Island, the second largest island in Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park. It's only 15 minus from Kinabalu city center by boat and the entrance fee only RM 10 for 3 islands, so I don't need to pay in the other island. This is the most popular island in Sabah because the beauty of the beach which has crystal water, besides the water is so calm and suitable for swimming or snorkeling. Also, this island has forested shore, so after swimming, you can rest on the bench and enjoy the wind from the sea under the trees. Such a lovely place..

Second island is Mamutik Island, the opposite of Manukan Island, Mamutik Island is the smallest island in Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park. This island gives a perfect view of the city because it's nearest from Kinabalu City. Seems like Manukan Island, you can swimming, snorkeling even scube diving in this island. When I snorkeling here, I see purple coral, Nemo, Damsel Fish, Parrot Fish and many more.

From this hotel, I asked the receptionist how to get to Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park and she gave me direction. I take white bus from Kinabalu City Center with price around RM 2. Arriving in Kinabalu City Center, I walk to the beach and looking for boat ticket. I found the cheapest one, only RM 45 for 3 islands (Manukan Island, Mamutik Island and Sapi Island )
