Borneo - A Nature Lover's Paradise

The virgin mangrove wetlands of the  rain-forest is teeming with wildlife. It houses 10 primate species, including Proboscis monkeys. There is also a wide variety of bird and exotic plant life.

Mention the East coast of Sabah and the magic of snorkelling and  scuba instantly springs to mind. This area is a marine wonderland and Sipadan is world renowned. Another must do is to visit one of the Turtle Islands that lie just off the coast of Sandakan. Only 50 people are allowed on a turtle Island at one time, so you’ll have to go on a tour and book well in advance.  Observe the Green Turtles or Hawksbill lay their eggs & experience the excitement as the tiny hatchlings scurry to the sea.

Get up close with the Orangs at the famous Sepilok Wildlife Rehabilitation centre.

Wonderful natural hot springs at the base of Mt Kinabalu. One or three hour jungle walks - complete with waterfalls and also a stunning canopy walk like no other.

Swiftlets that produce the valuable nests, bats and thousands of insects that live in the rich guano on the floor.
A truly different experience.
