Sabah tourism

The travel strategy of Sabah, Malaysia is as follows:

Tanjung Yalu Beach: Located on the west side of Kota Kinabalu, it is one of the most popular landmark attractions in the whole city of Kota Kinabalu. During the day, you can experience all kinds of water activities, and in the evening, you can get together with friends and relatives, blow the sea breeze, taste food, enjoy the beautiful sunset and sometimes see the magnificent landscape of flaming clouds. Water Mosque: Also known as Kota Kinabalu City Mosque, it is a very typical contemporary Islamic building, and it is also a magnificent church in the sunset of Malaysia. Whenever the sun sets, the afterglow of the sunset will put a golden coat on it, and the oil-like reflection on the lake and the building itself complement each other; Mabu Island: A beach island in the northeast of Semporna, adjacent to Sipadan Island, about 15 minutes by boat. The island is one of the top diving resorts in the world, where tourists can swim, snorkel and dive.

Located in Sabah, Malaysia, there is no typhoon or earthquake, so it is called "the land under the wind". It is rich in resources and has pleasant coastal scenery. What preparations should I make to go to such a beautiful tourist destination? Come and have a look with Bian Xiao.

: Sabah is located in the tropics. It is summer all year round, and the temperature is relatively high. Ultraviolet rays are particularly strong, even on cloudy days. The annual temperature in Sabah is around 23-34, almost unchanged, but there are frequent thunderstorms. So prepare rain gear or rain-proof outdoor clothes. Sabah has never had bad weather and natural disasters, so it is suitable for water sports in any season and will not be affected. But May-September is the dry season in Sabah, so the precipitation will be smaller, which is more suitable for tourism.

: Malaysia is a Puritan country. Many Sabah people believe in Islam, so they can't enter the mosque in vests, shorts and miniskirts. In addition, Islam prohibits eating pork, which imposes great moral constraints on people and requires high relations between men and women. If you go to the water mosque in Sabah, you should also be careful not to shoot entertainment videos or sing and dance in other people's religious occasions. You should respect other people's religious beliefs (bad things have happened before).

: the best time to travel in Sabah

1. Is there a seasonal time limit for island tourism?

No, Malaysia has a tropical climate, and the conditions are similar all year round. However, during the rainy season (November to April), there will be more precipitation, which will increase the unsafe factors of going to sea. Many tourism projects will be postponed because of the weather, so we should make arrangements according to the actual weather conditions.

2. What are the necessary items for island tourism?

Sunscreen, sunscreen cap, swimsuit, long pants (there are many mosquitoes when climbing mountains), mosquito repellent, professional diving equipment (one-day tour is issued by professionals), life jacket (one-day tour is issued by professionals), cash (in case you want to play offshore projects without cash), and change clothes.

3. The safety of island tourism?

Water safety: When snorkeling or doing other water sports, wear life jackets, obey the coach's instructions, don't swim to remote places alone, and be careful of the animals and plants on the seabed, such as corals and jellyfish. When taking a boat, sit still and don't put your body or hands out of the boat to touch the sea.

Beach safety: There are many killers hidden on the beach, such as shells and sharp garbage. If you want to walk on the beach, you must pay attention to the safety of your feet.

Mountaineering safety: Mountain roads are generally steep, the temperature on the mountain is lower than that under the mountain, and there are many mosquitoes. Remember to wear professional hiking shoes and casual long-sleeved trousers, and then prepare some snacks that can quickly replenish your strength, such as chocolate.

Must-take items for Sabah tourism

The airport is located about 10 kilometers south of Kota Kinabalu. It takes about 20 minutes to drive from the airport to the city. Take a taxi to Kota Kinabalu for RM 35. You can take a taxi when you leave the airport during the day. There is also a service desk at the airport that can call a car for you, but there are fewer cars. In addition, booking a one-day tour in Sabah usually provides the value-added service of "shuttle bus".

How to pick up the plane?

1. Take a taxi. Take a taxi at the airport to Kota Kinabalu, about RM 35. You can take a taxi from the airport during the day, but it is rare. There is also a service desk at the airport, which can call a taxi for you.

If you sign up for a one-day tour in Sabah, you may get a pick-up service.

Use a car in Kota Kinabalu (go to scenic spots, supermarkets, restaurants, etc. )

During my stay in Kota Kinabalu, I hardly met a few taxis, all of which were called by the hotel. It's too difficult to take a taxi, but there are many near shopping malls, docks and restaurants, which are a little more expensive. Basically, getting on the bus is RM20. There are buses in Kota Kinabalu, and there are bus stops at the gates of several hotels and scenic spots, but I really can't stand the feeling of waiting for the bus in the equatorial hot sun.

I definitely won't use the above modes of transportation, because the agent who booked a one-day tour at that time said that if he booked their one-day tour, he could send the car to the city for five days free. Unlimited times, free and success tempt me. As it turns out, this is the wisest decision I made during my trip. In the next few days, I had a free "special car" in Kota Kinabalu. I gave them the place where I want to eat or go to the supermarket, and the car will be picked up directly at the door of my hotel later.
