Madgin, one island and one hotel, this island has only one resort. The island is full of fine and tall palm trees, tropical flowers, fine white sand beaches, clear blue waters and looming reefs. It is a quiet and idyllic private island. The color of the water in Madagascar has changed from shallow to deep, forming a three-color sea, crystal clear, gem-green, and blue sky, coconut grove, white sand, wooden house, like a beautiful picture. Diving in this light green glass seawater, passing by with colorful fish, swimming in the strange coral groves, enjoy the beauty of this world. Advantages: The island is rich in content, with a trailing beach, the beach on the island, and the gardens are beautiful. The snorkeling on the beach of the hotel is wide, the water is clear, and the fish and coral are rich. Disadvantages: There is no water house, beach wooden house and high-foot wooden house and villa at the same price, the room facilities are a bit old, but it does not affect the use, the space is large enough, the comfort is ok, and the air conditioning is strong enough. Meals are average. This time I chose three of Semporna's most famous islands: Madgin, Mabu, and Capalle, all including three meals + pick-up and drop-off machine + pick-up boat.

This holiday in Semporna, I chose the three most famous island accommodations: Madgin, Mabu Island, Capalei all include three meals + pick-up and drop-off boat. I moved directly from the Mabu Island Water House to Capalei Water House, a 15-minute boat ride, very convenient. The water house in Capalle is not as good-looking as Mabu Island, but here, only in-house guests can go to the island. Mabu Island is an island hopping guest who can visit the island, so there are more tourists during the day. In Capalle Island, all are water houses. The coral reefs on both sides of the water house plank road are clearly visible, and fish, starfish and sea cucumbers are also everywhere. Looking at it, there are beautiful scenery far and near, the eyes are so enjoyable, and the mood is so happy. Every place on the island is beautiful, no matter where you sit, the welfare of the eyes will not be less. Dining in the beautiful scenery sometimes makes people ignore the taste of food. Advantages: The hotel's snorkeling area, fish, coral reefs are enough. But the scope of snorkeling is not as big as the motor Jingguang. Meals are richer than other two islands. Only in-house guests can go to the island, and island hopping guests can only dive near the island. Disadvantages: the room configuration is simple and the air conditioning is not strong enough.

Mabu Island, beautiful! Flower water house, full of holiday style. Advantages: The water house environment is very beautiful, it is the most luxurious water house in Semporna, and the hardware is the best in the three islands. The meal is slightly better than Madding. Free boat dives are provided three times a day, and turtles can be seen diving. Glass boats, skateboarding boats, are also free. The other two islands, diving equipment needs to be rented. Disadvantages: The diving scenery is not as good as the other two islands. During the day, many island hopping guests shuttle on the island.

Tunshakaran Ocean Park, also known as Semporna Islands Park, is located in the offshore waters on the eastern side of Sabah and is a marine park consisting of eight small islands, the largest marine park in Sabah. Although not famous compared to other marine parks in Malaysia, the rich underwater biological system here is not to be underestimated. The park has Malaysia's largest coral colony, and you can see countless mysterious and beautiful underwater creatures just by burying your head in the water.

Satu pengalaman yang indah melawat pulau sibuan. Berjalan di atas pasir yang putih bersih, membuatkan saya seakan terpukau dengan keindahan pulau sibuan. Staff taman marin (Taman-Taman Sabah) juga sangat baik dan profesional dalam menjalankan tanggungjawab mereka. Lawatan ini merupakan lawatan kali yang ketujuh. Saya memang tidak akan pernah jemu untuk melawat pulau indah ini. you

Capalei is a perfect diving destination in Semporna. The water is clear and visible for tens of meters below the surface. It is also rich in fish and beautiful coral reefs, so it is one of the world's diving resorts. Diving here is truly unforgettable, because the underwater world is truly beautiful.
