MATAKING ISLAND, SEMPORNA

Mataking Island is a Malaysian island located in the Celebes Sea on the state of Sabah. Mataking Island is home to the first 'Underwater Post Office' in Malaysia and is connected to Pulau Mataking Kecil (Small Mataking Island) via a narrow sand bank. Mataking Island is a private island belonging to the Reef Dive Resort featuring luxury chalets and a dive center serving divers visiting Sipadan. Such a splendid scenery. The snorkeling is included in the island hoping package. We can see the sea creature from above. The sand is as white as paper. However during my visit, there are a lot of jelly fish making it not safe to get into the water. There are also shop located there owned by the locals. The best part is we can see the philippines border just not far from the island. #matakingisland #asiatrip #gooutside #passionpassport
