MANTANANI ISLAND
Mantanani Island (Pulau Mantanani) is a tropical island getaway off the coast of Kota Belud in Sabah, Malaysia, and a popular escape for travellers visiting Kota Kinabalu. The Mantanani Islands are made up of three islands: Mantanani Besar, Mantanani Kecil and Lingisan. Mantanani Besar is the main island and the hub for most visitor activities, while Mantanani Kecil offers clearer waters and a quieter, more private setting. Together, the islands are known for their turquoise sea, tropical beaches and relaxed island atmosphere.
Mantanani is also known as Sabah's "Mermaid Island", a nickname linked to the rare dugongs, or "sea cows", that have been sighted in the surrounding waters. Snorkelling and diving are among the main highlights, with coral reefs, tropical fish and other marine life to discover beneath the surface. Visitors can also enjoy kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, beach activities and time relaxing by the sea. For overnight guests, the seasonal Blue Tears phenomenon is another special experience, where bioluminescent plankton can create a glowing effect along the shoreline at night.
Whether you choose a Mantanani Island day trip from Kota Kinabalu, a snorkelling tour or an overnight island stay, Mantanani offers an easy mix of marine adventure and laid-back island time, with plenty of ways to enjoy the sea, explore the island and experience a different side of Sabah.
