Answer 1

The Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park is a unique maritime park comprising five idyllic islands, only 20 minutes away from Kota Kinabalu by speed boat. With stretches of white sandy beaches, crystal clear waters and coral reefs, this is an ideal spot for first-time and seasoned divers alike, and for snorkeling and picnicking. Many diving companies offer discover scuba packages and open water dive courses at these islands. Most dive courses are conducted here before adjourning to Sipadan Island, the ultimate dive site in Malaysia.
