Kota Kinabalu Outlying Islands Day Tour / Pulau Pantan

For the winter vacation, our family decided to go to Kota Kinabalu to relax for a few days. On the last day, we signed up for a one-day tour to a remote island through Ctrip and went to Pulau Pulau Manat. We departed from the hotel at around 7 o'clock in the morning, and the boat left the pier at 8 o'clock. It took 1 and a half hours to reach the island. The bumpy journey was all worth it when we arrived. The jelly sea under the blue sky and sunshine coupled with the pink and white sand beach is so beautiful. 🌈Attractions: Huantan Island is far away from the main island, with clear water and few tourists. It is suitable for diving, lying down, taking pictures, and the whole family can enjoy the sunshine and beach quietly. 🕐️Scenic area opening hours: Go to the pier before 8:15 in the morning and return at 2:00 in the afternoon. You can usually reach the main island pier by 3:30. 🚗Transportation strategy: One-day tour, departing from Magellan Pier 💗Other tips: 1. The sun is very strong, please pay attention to sun protection 2. You can sign up for deep diving, which requires an additional fee. Snorkeling equipment is provided at no additional charge 3. If you don’t go diving, you can take photos on the beach, which is also a good choice [CoolGuy]
