Sapi Island, Tunku Abdul Rahman Park


Pulau Sapi is located off the coast of downtown Kota Kinabalu. From Hyatt Regency Kinabalu, a 2-minute drive or a 10-minute walk will bring you to the jetty at Jesselton Poin ferry terminal (formerly known as Sabah Port Authority jetty).

There are a number of tour operators here that will bring you to Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park (which consists of the islands of Pulau Gaya, Pulau Sapi, Pulau Manukan, Pulau Sulug and Pulau Mamutik). The one way charged per head of boat which only cost you RM7.00 . One boat can fit 4-6 people, A short 20-minute breezy boat ride away brings you to the sun-kissed beach of Pulau Sapi.

The water is extremely crystal clear. During the day, the beach is buzzing with a hive of beach activities.The beach is probably one of the region's most beautiful beach. The water is quite shallow and ample of shades are available. In term of snorkeling, one still can do it here although I found there was not so much marine life compared to the nearby island of Pulau Manukan. Otherwise, you can laze down by the beautiful beach and worship the sun. In short, activities galore on this beautiful beach. Just get your sun-tan lotions and sun-shade, then head to the lovely island.


Do not be afraid of your safety while you are in any five (5) Tunku Abdul Rahman island, life guard will be there to help you out in case of anything happen. Besides, you can also explore its unique of the junggle trekking which is believed to be the Sapi Head as you can see through the map. The jungle trekking will takes you 20-30 minutes. Asides, do not missed out the lovely beach (Gaya Island) while you are on trekking. Gaya island can be seen clearly through the jungle trekking in Sapi Island. Trust me, it is a bliss scenery to behold as for the beach lovers!
