Reviews: Sapi Island Kota Kinabalu, Sabah Malaysia + Manukan Island Day Tour [Snorkeling + Seafood Buffet Lunch + Water Attractions & Tours]
Guest User2026-02-03
Ideal for families with children. The two islands are very close and offer snorkeling suitable for kids.
You can ask if the tour guide is Ah Hong; he's responsible, humorous, and friendly. He even helped us find a Chinese-speaking instructor on the spot. He said you can get everything arranged by just mentioning his name when you arrive on the island.
It's 279 per person, including pick-up and drop-off, lunch, and snorkeling gear. Very hassle-free.
Look for the gentleman in the photo.★

Reviews: Sabah Kota Kinabalu Sapi & Manukan Island Snorkeling Shared Day Tour optional Watersport
Guest User2025-12-19
Our guide, Tommy, was very friendly and helpful. Sapi Island and Manuka Island are both beautiful. However, the lack of fish during snorkeling was disappointing, so we had to pay separately for sea walking. Be sure to try parasailing for an additional fee. It'll be a wonderful memory.
