Mengalum Island - Snorkelling / Diving

Attractions

There is a beach island in Sabah far away from the coastline. It is located 56 kilometers northwest of Kota Kinabalu. It is named because the entire island is roughly an irregular circle when viewed from a satellite and is surrounded by beaches. , some islands are private land with resorts built on them. They have only been opened to the public in recent years. The sea water is clear and blue and has many coral colors. It is very suitable for diving, snorkeling, observing underwater creatures and underwater photography. It is surrounded by a long white sand beach. , there is a feeling of isolation from the world, not many people know about it, and it is the island with the least people.

This tropical island surrounded by white sandy beaches and turquoise waters is a paradise for those who want to completely relax and unwind in tranquil surroundings. It only takes one hour by boat to reach the island from Kota Kinabalu AREA, Sabah.

It used to be a private island, but it has only been opened to the public in recent years. It requires a special guide to bring it in. Because it is far away from the land, the water is clearer and the corals are more colorful. You can see small fish and corals while snorkeling, and if you are lucky, you can even see them. Starfish, it is said that there are few people and beautiful scenery there!
