Sabah

Sabah was well-known as “The Land Below the Wind” in which seafarers used this term to refer Sabah. Due to its geographical location, Sabah is a mountainous area which consists of the three highest mountains in Malaysia. Thus, the state is definitely a good place for nature-loving tourists who wish to have a good relaxing time while being close to the Mother Nature.

There are many hotels in Sabah which cater to the needs of these nature-loving travelers. In Sabah, travelers are expected to be exposed to various eco-friendly tourism spots which not only will bring tourists closer to the nature but in the same time, it will help tourists to reinforce their appreciation towards the Mother Nature. Sabah can be easily accessed through the Tawau Airport, which also provides convenient public transportations to bring travelers to their respective hotels or to other attractions in the state.

As mentioned, Sabah is a mountainous area. Thus, many hotels are prepared in Kota Kinabalu – the capital city of Sabah – to allow easy access to Mount Kinabalu, which travelers obtain the chance to view the highest mountain in South East Asia up close. Mount Kinabalu is especially famous amongst hikers, in which hikers will be able to obtain a fruitful experience along the hiking journey up the mountain, with or without a guide.

Sandakan is yet another important spot in Sabah. Tourists can look out for the Sandakan Crocodile Farm to learn more of the reptile species in the state. To explore more of the underwater beauty, tourists can also head towards the Semporna Island, in which it is also the best world diving destination one can find in Sabah.
