Malaysia Island Hopping Tour Money Saving Tips

This time, the trip to Malaysia is not long, I decided to take a vacation in Sabah✨, Highly recommend island hopping, not too many people and the water is clear. It fulfilled all my fantasies about the islands😝. Staring at the sea, walking on the beach and building sandcastles⛪, Snorkeling to see fish🐠, and playing some water activities, It's so cool, so relaxing!🎈 As a trip that requires a lot of self-selection, I suggest you take a look at this guide🌟, save money and avoid pitfalls. 👉About Island Hopping: ①There are 5 islands around Sabah, the most popular are Sapi Island, Manukan Island, Mamutik Island, I chose the first two. The speedboat will take you to the island for free activities, if there are water activities or island hopping, there will be guides to call. 🏝Sapi Island: Highly recommended here👍The sand is fine, the water is clear and there are many fish. The fish are mainly concentrated near the green buoy a little far from the shore. I played parasailing here. 🏝Manukan Island: There are more people, and there are fewer types of fish than Sapi Island. It is recommended to snorkel under the pier, where there are many fish. I played banana boat and flying fish here. 🏝Mamutik Island: The island is very small and only half of it has been developed, and there are not many people and there are restaurants. If you have time, you can go here another day. ②Island hopping is really not the more islands you go to in one day, the better‼️ Don't get up early, arrive at "Jesselton Point Ferry Terminal" at 10:30 (buy tickets and leave immediately when there are enough people), and take the last boat back at 16:00. It is recommended to choose 2 islands or it is also very good to play slowly on one island, otherwise it is always in transit🚤. 👉Window selection & bargaining Windows 1-3 are a family, I booked here. It is said that window 7 can speak Chinese, but some friends feedback that the service is not good: before playing the banana boat, there is no prompt to change clothes and the boat will turn over, just throw people into the sea🙈. 💰Each window has a uniform price, and cannot be bargained: ①The boat fare is 35RM for one island, and 10RM is added for each additional island. You can add it if you want to book one first. ②The island fee is 25RM/person, no matter how many islands you go to, you only need to pay once, and you must keep the ticket. ③Parasailing full-course Gopro video + photo 65RM/person, no matter how you bargain, it won't work. After watching the film, it was really well recorded, so I bought it.💡It is recommended to download the material locally! 💰Can be bargained: water activities. I said I wanted to play parasailing + banana boat after I arrived on the island, the original 161RM, talked to 100, it is said that there seems to be a deal of 85. 💰Don't rent: life jacket. Whether you can swim or not, ask you if you want it, just say no. Because you must wear a life jacket when taking a speedboat, you can take it to the island to play, and return it when you come back. If you rent it, you will spend more money. 🎒Suggest to bring: Sunscreen/mud, hat, sunglasses, mobile phone waterproof bag, swimsuit, slippers, towel, simple lunch, drinking water.
