Attractions
MABUL Island is a small island off the south-eastern coast of Sabah in Malaysia. The island has been a fishing village since the 1970s. In the 1990s, it first became popular to divers due to its proximity to Sipadan island.
Sunrise & Sunset
Mabul is located in Sabah, the first Malaysian state to witness the golden rays of the sun every morning, at about 5.45am.
It’s an early wake-up call, but the reward is well worth it. Join the villagers as they prepare for the day ahead or settle down in your chosen spot at the end of the day to experience sunrise or sunset in Mabul.
KAPALAI Island Widely known as Malaysia’s version of the Maldives, Kapalai Island is an idyllic, sun-steeped paradise located in the middle of the Celebes Sea.
A dream destination for those who seriously wish to get away from it all, Kapalai is situated just 15-20 minutes by boat from Pulau Mabul and its world-famous neighbour, Pulau Sipadan.
Whether you’re on the beach relaxing or gazing out into the turquoise waters that stretch into the horizon, an afternoon in this remote part of the world offers the purest images of natural serenity.
Kapalai Island is not, in the true sense of the word, an island. It is in fact a picturesque, white sandbank at sea level formed as a result of hundreds of years of erosion.
The Sipadan-Kapalai Dive Resort is an eco-resort whose waste management practice was made into a case study in 2011 by the Malaysian Ministry of Tourism as an effort to conserve and preserve the natural environment and beauty of islands marked as tourist destinations in the country.
