Reviews: 1-Day Tour to Sapi Island Kota Kinabalu, Sabah Malaysia + Manukan Island [Snorkeling/Water Tours + Seafood BBQ Lunch]
Guest User2026-03-25
Punctual pick-up and drop-off, small tour group, easy-to-manage guide. Sapi Island has clear water, white sand, and plenty of fish, a great place for snorkeling. Manukan Island also has clear water, but not many fish. Guide Zhihong is good. Worth the trip.

The tour guide was very enthusiastic and attentive. The food on the island was delicious; I especially loved the crab – it was incredibly fresh. The tour was very beginner-friendly, particularly for those wanting to try snorkeling. You could buy your own mask and try it out. If you didn't want to snorkel, just taking photos and enjoying the breeze was quite pleasant. You could also bring your own towel and lie on the beach under the trees – so comfortable!

Our guide, Tommy, was so kind and great. Sapi Island and Manuka Island were both amazing. However, it was a bit disappointing that we had to pay separately for sea walking because there weren't many fish while snorkeling. I highly recommend trying parasailing for the extra cost. It makes for a wonderful memory.

I'm very satisfied! The guide kept an eye on our belongings the whole time, so I was able to snorkel with peace of mind. There are only basic showers and no changing rooms, so if you need to change, you'll have to either use the toilet or wrap yourself in a towel and change discreetly.
Reviews: Sabah Kota Kinabalu Sapi & Mamutik Island Snorkeling Shared Day Tour Includes Lunch & Optional Water Activities
Guest User2025-07-18
Our guide, Tommy, was a local Chinese and very enthusiastic. Our accompanying guide, Winston, was also very helpful and didn't pressure us to participate in any optional excursions. We returned early because we were too tired and skipped one of the afternoon island excursions, signing a confirmation. The sea was rough with strong winds, making the speedboat trip bumpy and choppy, but the children were incredibly excited. The island snorkeling was similar to other similar activities; we saw many small fish. Unfortunately, the ferry service to Mantanani Island and Botanica Island was cancelled due to rain a few days prior. Actually, you can buy boat tickets at Jeston Pier to get to the islands without a tour. Lunch is included today, but we need to meet at the designated meeting point; please take a taxi to the meeting point yourself.
