Reviews: Tanjung Aru Beach 2.5-Hour SUP Experience in Kota Kinabalu | Sunrise/Sunset Paddleboarding with Beginner Lessons
Guest User2026-01-21
It was an unforgettable and enjoyable experience. Upon arriving at the beach, our guide provided English language guidance and a paddleboarding lesson. Afterwards, we entered the water, where our guide took photos of each of us individually, and we were free to paddleboard freely. The scenery was truly beautiful, and I loved how passionately they took our photos. However, if you don't choose the pick-up service, you'll be picked up at DBKK CAR PARK in Tanjung Aru. Be careful not to confuse it with DBKK PARKING!

The stand-up paddleboarding experience at Tanjung Aru Beach was fantastic, lasting approximately 2.5 hours. Both the sunrise and sunset views were beautiful. Everything was very well organized. The pick-up and drop-off service was punctual and reliable. Our guide/driver was excellent. Special praise goes to our instructors, several outstanding young women! They patiently taught and demonstrated the correct techniques, constantly encouraged us, and even took many wonderful photos for us. The entire experience was very reassuring and enjoyable. Furthermore, the facilities were excellent, with showers and changing rooms, and all necessary equipment was provided. I definitely recommend this activity!

The city pick-up and drop-off was a little late, but it didn't affect the arrangements after arrival. The changing area was very basic, so I recommend changing beforehand. There won't be much time to change after the activity, so I suggest bringing a large towel to wrap yourself in to avoid catching a cold. The paddleboard driver was very friendly, constantly helping us take photos and taking us to spots with good sunset views until sunset before heading back.
