A steady motor hums as the boat slips from Jesselton Point and the city falls behind—blue open water moves between you and two coral islands that rise like green eyebrows on the horizon. Saltwind pulls at your shirt; the captain calls the first drop and the reef below dares you to dive in.

Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park was designated in the 1970s to protect these offshore atolls and the shallow coral that fringes them. Geologically the islands are old coral platforms sitting on the continental shelf; currents and wave action have built narrow fringing reefs that attract colorful reef fish and the occasional green sea turtle. Locally, Bajau boaters and Kota Kinabalu markets tie island visits into a culture of fishing, family BBQs, and relaxed island time.
On this 7‑hour outing you’ll typically stop at Manukan and Mamutik (or Mamutik/Sapi), with roughly 15–20 minutes of boat time each way, two 1–2 hour snorkeling windows, and a beachside lunch. Water visibility is usually best in the dry season; expect shallow reefs, pockets of sand, and sections of seagrass. Guides provide snorkel gear and a shore lunch, but bring reef‑safe sunscreen, a mask you trust if you prefer, and plenty of water.
Practical tips: arrive with a towel and a lightweight cover‑up, apply sunscreen before boarding, and listen to briefing notes about currents and reef etiquette. For families and casual swimmers this is an accessible, high‑value day on the water that pairs easy logistics with reliable marine wildlife viewing.
The tour runs about 7 hours and typically includes hotel pick‑up (within city center radius), boat transfers, snorkel gear, an English guide and a beach lunch.
