Sabah Beaches

Just a ten minute ferry ride away from the state capital of Kota Kinabalu, Gaya Island features luxury resorts, some of which offer chalets resting directly on top of the cool, clear sea water and the coral reefs beneath it.

The island itself features a far-reaching assortment of wildlife, much of which is protected by various parks and wildlife reserves on the island. Several resorts and governmental agencies have set up ecologically themed walks and centres, allowing visitors to experience the beauty and wonder of South-East Asia's wildlife, while preserving its natural habitat.
