Things to see in Borneo: Borneo's Resorts

Useful Links

The seas off the coast of Sabah are littered with tropical islands, many of which offer excellent snorkelling and diving. This makes a great way to unwind at the end of your trip.

Among our favourites is tiny jewel-like Lankayan Island in the Sulu Sea, a one and a half hour boat ride from Sandakan, and part of an immense Marine Protected Area. Otherwise unpopulated, this tranquil, untouched piece of paradise is fringed by a beach of white sand and offers simple but elegant accommodation in 23 spacious, wooden seafront chalets.

Another favourite is Pom Pom Island, a 45 minute boat ride from the coast in the Celebes Sea, further south. Like Lankayan, it is a nesting site for green and hawksbill turtles and has a resident marine biologist who can enhance your understanding of the rich and colourful undersea world.

If you are interested in scuba diving, why not add a Dive Worldwide package at the end of your trip?
