Kota Kinabalu, Sabah: Modern and Refreshing

Kota Kinabalu City was by the seaside. As a modern city, its have all the facilities for tourists and visitors to enjoy. One of the reason that we love Sabah is the nature and the modern facilities. It is easy to get around. We were staying at Hotel ShangriLa Perbandaran and is not that expensive (less than RM 200 per night).

At the waterfront, a leisure place to be, sitting enjoying the view of the waterfront, beautiful people around, and sipping away coffee or for me beer.

We were having drinks and watching the beautiful sunset.

The next day, we spend most of the day at Sapi and Manukan Island. Beautiful Island as we snorkel and swim with the fishes. Wish that i can do fishing of the coast of Sabah. My next post will include some pictures of fishes. The duration of the boat ride is 20 minutes to Manukan Island. A view from the speed boat as we leave, KK city.

A view of the jetty in Manukan Island. That day, about few hundred of Korean visited the Island. From Manukan Island, we hop into the speed boat to the Sapi Island. We bought two island trip. We love Sapi Island more as it has minimal facilities. I should have bought 3 island trip but will spend shorter time in an island than.

Will be coming back to these Islands during the next trip. We went back to KK city around 2 pm and reach KK jetty around 2.30 pm. Have a nice walk back to the hotel, taking our sweet time and stroll alone the shop. Do some window shopping too and took lots of pictures.
