We were lucky and saw sea turtle. Private operator for this place with limited visitor entrance. Crystal clear sea with countless fish as well as nemo during snorkeling.This was the only island I went in KK recommended by LOCAL. They said, aim for the best to go in KK instead making a tired island hopping near city and seen nothing stunning. I will surely come back again.

The water is clearer and there are many fish compared to other nearby islands. The water depth of the beach is so deep that it seems that a lot of young children come with them. A herd of monkeys lives on the island.

The beautiful Gaya Island is particularly famous in the local area and is also one of the best destinations for many people to choose. The scenery here is really good, and the ecological maintenance is quite good.

Dive deep during the day and participate in the beach party at night. The experience is full. I went to Semporna to eat a box lunch before. The big meat crabs on Dolphin Island! Prawn! The meal is also all inclusive and worth it! ! 💃🏼

The name is quite dreamy! There are not many tourists, most of them will choose some net red islands, making this place the first choice for deep tours and tourists who like quietness. The sea is relatively clear and clean, and it is a very comfortable place! Relax ~

The island is not very famous, very small, and there is no hotel accommodation on it. Only a small restaurant can sit down and order some drinks, sit down and blow the sea breeze, look at the sea, drink the drinks very freehand.
