Discover Gaya Island, Borneo 🌴
Just a 15-minute speedboat ride from Kota Kinabalu on the main island, Gaya Island swaps city streets for tropical rainforest, white-sand beaches and the clear waters of Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park.
There’s plenty to discover beyond the beach:
🐠 Snorkel amongst colourful coral reefs, tropical fish and sea turtles
🐒 Keep watch for proboscis monkeys, macaques and monitor lizards
🛶 Kayak through mangroves or explore the island’s secluded coastline
🏖️ Slow things down with time on the sand and a swim in the warm sea
Gaya Island is the perfect way to end your Borneo adventure, providing the ultimate spot to relax after an exciting holiday searching for wildlife in Sabah's rainforests. 🌅
