Pulau ManukanTaman Tunku Abdul Rahman
Sabah
After a night-stay in Kinabalu Park, we went to Tunku Abdul Rahman Park. This is my second visit but I don't mind to come again as the place IS REALLY NICE. Tunku Abdul Rahman Park is actually a designated area by the Sabah government as National Sea Park. It consisted 5 islands namely Pulau Gaya (the largest and the only island with inhabitants), Pulau Manukan, Pulau Sulug, Pulau Mamutik and Pulau Sapi.
From left : before departure; since I know some locals - I did asked them favour to ride their boat. Warning - only license tour boat allowed to dock or bring tourist to the Sea Park.
My advise are first to come early as this islands tend to attract huge crowd between 9am till 12pm. Second advise - please bring a lot of breads as you can feed and play with the friendly fishes. You guys might try on several water sports available.You can snorkeling, scuba diving, and others. There's some conservation fees for the tourist but I can't remember the amount. It's different from locals and foreigners.
I didn't lie to yo - you can really play with the fishes. It's a lot and so colourful. Don't worry their bite it's nothing. But please make sure you guys take precaution as there's several time it's jellyfish seasons. Some just have small skin reaction from their stings but there's case a Korean boy died because their poisonous sting. More on anaphylactic shock I presume.
