The view is beautiful.. but it certainly was hot.. I mean the weather.. don't forget to put on your sun block.




The resort.. swim pool are available.. but for in house guest only..




Diving?? Yes they have..

Spotted a new activity.. Nemo adventure?? I wonder how is that.. but our boat is waiting.. so I didn't managed to have a look.. But I know it's another method using an equipment to dive inside the sea to see the fish playground.. ^_^

Manukan Island (Kota Kinabalu)_p.1

Welcome to Manukan Island..

The 1st island I visited during my trip (doing my article ^_^).. Frankly speaking.. this is the only Island that I always visited when I was still staying in KK (Always??.. baru 2..3 kali pun.. ;-p).

I think I did came to Sapi Island.. but it was like how many decades ago.. when I was still small.. imagine that..

The islands was so near.. yet we as KK citizen don't really explore them.. *bite finger*




To come here (Or any other islands) it only takes about 10-15minutes.. The best part is this island is only around KK town.. you don't have to travel far to reach them..




Lot's of fishes here.. (Bring extra bread.. to feed them ;-p)




Beautiful long beaches..




Can you spot few rooftop around the jungle? Yes.. you can stay here..

Click Sutera Santuary Lodges to know the prices.




I love the sea view!!




I think Manukan jetty is the most beautiful among the other 4 island (Ok some island no jetty 1 k..).. ^_^




Looking at the girls playing with fish.. Will do the same on my next visit.. ^_^




I am happy to see the beach was clean.. my last visit was quite a disappointment.. Totally happy to see the improvement.. Hope it will last this way..




The Island entrance.. you have to pay RM3 (Malaysian).. International (RM10).. My boy 4yrs was free entrance..




View back to the jetty.. (Aik moi?? Kau gambar saya kah tu?? Perasan sudah ni.. ;-p ;-p)




Ya.. their site.. ~.@




Few pic of the lodges..












Lot's of trees around..








Going to the other part of the beach..




Small food store.. You can get something like burger.. fried mee and drinks here..




..and have it here.. ^_^




Beach view for you to drool.. ;-p





To be continue..

Jesselton Point, Kota Kinabalu Sabah

Happy Sunday everyone.. I was a attacked by flu again last night.. *Sigh* (Makin tua makin susut ke antibodi ni?? adeiii.... ~.@)

Took flu medication last night.. feeling much better.

It's time to share my Island trip around KK this time. For those who never been to KK before.. This is 1 of the interesting thing to do during your trip.. ^_^




I am visiting the 5 famous island in KK which called the Tunku Abdul Rahman Park. To visit any of the island, you have to come to Jesselton Point located at KK town.




I saw few old photos about KK town during those days.. It's nice to know how our town looks like once upon a time ago..




This was around 1900..




Around the jetty area.. Clean and pleasant environment.. There are a lines of small cafe around.. so you might need to 'tapao' some food before heading to the island.. Coz it quite pricey when buying food on the island.. or may be limited food can be found.




This area remind me of Fremantle harbour, Perth.. ^_^




This is where we need to purchase the tickets.. few counters belongs to different company.. Their price was almost the same just depends on how their services are.. in terms of boat quality etc..

I did not do any spot-checked on that.. I was in a hurry to do the tour for my article.. ^_^. So I go with the 1st counter.




Waiting seats.. Very convenient.. I went during weekdays.. so it wasn't that packed.. but full with tourist later after that..




Inside the building there is small shops selling all the beach stuffs.. and I bought a new over size beach hat just for RM20.. ;-p




We are about to go.. here some photos around the jetty..




White building.. KK Suria mall..












Thank you to my mom for accompany me during that tour.. at least when I am doing my task.. she is there to look after my boy..

(My boy have a very strong excitement with water.. so I need some1 to handle him, to avoid him from jumping to the sea without my knowledge.. ~.@)




Mummy with personal boat driver.. LOL..

Our 1st Island to Manukan Island on next post..
