About Mantanani Island:
Mantanani island Sabah is one of the most picturesque yet-to-be-explored destination Malaysian state that brims with pristine beaches, thick-wooded rainforests, abundant coral reefs, and diverse marine life.

Sabah is one of the best spots for snorkeling and offers amazing views of underwater life. The crystal clear waters of the Mantanani island literally lets you see the bottom of the ocean and swimming and snorkeling Sabah are the best ways to enjoy Sabah’s untouched natural beauty.

Snorkeling in Sabah is absolutely safe and lets you revel in the astounding beauty of the coral world. Sabah boasts of rich wildlife and the Kawa Kawa river cruise takes you closer to them. Sabah is the home to a number of not-so-common animals like Proboscis monkeys and dugongs.

Fireflies are found in huge numbers in Sabah and observing them in their natural habitat late in the evening is undeniably a sight to behold. The Dugongs are a medium-sized, friendly marine mammal that has become the cutest attraction amongst tourists who choose snorkeling Sabah packages.
