DAY THREE
1 JUNE 2013 (SATURDAY)
Sabah is famous for its island. The world-famous diving spots including Sipadan, Mabul, Kapalai and Layang-layang. There are also other nice snorkeling areas such as the 2 mentioned below.
Sapi Island
 |
| Jesselton Point |
 |
| Heading to our motorboat! |
 |
| We reach Sapi Island Jeti! |
 |
| Beautiful beach |
 |
| Calm sea breeze |
Wait... it's not the end! Part of the reason we are in Sapi Island is to experience the sea walk!
What is this sea walk? Simple... walk under the sea! Is it possible? Yes it is. Share with you some random pictures :)
 |
| Did we look like underwater astronauts? Yes, we are deep down under the sea with fishes swimming around us! |
 |
| Can you spot the nemo? |
Don't be frightened to experience this once in a life time opportunity! You're 100% safe. There will be 3 instructors monitoring us below and taking our pictures as we interact with the fishes. The fees might be expensive (RM180 for locals and RM250 for foreigners) but again, how often you get to walk on the sea bed? Cherish that moment!
Manukan Island
Manukan is another island worth visiting. However, if compared to Sapi island, Sapi island water is more transparent, and the coral reefs are lively. Somehow, Manukan Island is disappointing as I see rubbish are litter into the sea! No proper control/management done. The fishes are not as vibrant as Sapi too. Maybe it's just a bad day for me to visit! haha.

| Cozy resort is built inside of Manukan Island |
 |
| Still, you get the scenic view |
Note: Didn't manage to capture much pictures on this island as the time spent here is shorter.
I won't be writing for day 4 as the only activity worth mentioning is visiting the Gaya Market, which was very merry. Stay tune to my next holiday!
