1. It is worth going. If you are in Kota Kinabalu, you can choose a one-day tour to Pulau Mantan, which is about 500 including pick-up and drop-off. 2. The boat takes 2 hours, so you must take seasickness medicine in advance. It is basically very bumpy and half of the people may vomit. 3. Sunscreen is a must, it is very sunny, going out to sea. 4. There is food on the one-day tour, which is actually OK. If you think it is not OK, bring some food with you. 5. There are places to change clothes, toilets and wifi on the island.

Kota Kinabalu City Mosque is a stunning architectural gem that appears to float on its surrounding lagoon, creating a mesmerizing sight at sunrise and sunset. Inspired by the Nabawi Mosque in Medina, its elegant blue and gold dome, along with its towering minarets, makes it one of the most picturesque mosques in Malaysia. The peaceful atmosphere, combined with the opportunity to explore the mosque by paddle boat, adds to its unique charm. Whether visiting for prayer, photography, or quiet reflection, this mosque is a must-see landmark in Sabah. Five stars – A blend of spiritual beauty and breathtaking scenery. #KotaKinabaluMosque #FloatingMosque #SabahTravel #MalaysiaBeauty

The smallest island feels like playing with the general and the other island. I think it is generally the best, or Mamoody Island. It is clearer and you can see a little more beautiful fish.

I wanted to buy some local clothes and I happened to come here to have a look. The stalls were arranged like a grid, with similar accessories and clothes. It was quite hot inside, and there should be a lot of room for bargaining. Since there were no vests for sale and the clothes were of average quality, I didn't buy anything. It should be very good for taking photos, with colorful and exotic styles. My friends took a few photos of me while I was shopping, and it should be good if you look for angles to pose.
