When you think you have enough of sightseeing and you want to take a day's break idling around to charge your energy, then I suggest you take a 30-minute boat trip to Tunku Abdul Rahman Park. The park is made up of five beautiful islands and is a well-known sanctuary where peace and tranquility prevails. The tropical white sandy beaches are ideal for relaxing and tanning. The crystal clear water is fantastic if you fancy snorkeling or watchingrepparttar sea lives and corals. The park is also a great spot for a BBQ picnic underrepparttar 134201 long hours of golden sunshine. Other activities include windsurfing, fishing, parasailing, kayaking and bird watching.

Golfing Holidays

If golf is your sport, then tryrepparttar 134202 numerous high quality golf courses in Sabah. One ofrepparttar 134203 courses as described by its designer - "I had to create a masterpiece by combiningrepparttar 134204 natural splendor ofrepparttar 134205 mountains andrepparttar 134206 seas, with ingenious architecture, and create a first class championship course to provide an enjoyable, yet challenging game for top professional golfers and amateurs alike" - Graham Marsh. Enough words said forrepparttar 134207 quality of golf courses here.

White-Water Rafting

Forrepparttar 134208 true adventure seeker looking for an adrenaline-pumping activity, Sabah offers some ofrepparttar 134209 most exhilarating thrills inrepparttar 134210 world. My scariest experience, only because I am not a good swimmer, is white-water rafting downrepparttar 134211 Padas River (a grade-3 river). Whilst trying to negotiaterepparttar 134212 rapids along this raging river for a distance of about 5 kilometers, do enjoyrepparttar 134213 breathtaking view thatrepparttar 134214 surrounding rain forest does offer. However, be warned, don't take your eyes offrepparttar 134215 rapids and waves too long!

Sipadan Island rises as a pristine Coral Sea mount, 650 meters fromrepparttar 134219 floor ofrepparttar 134220 Sulawesi Sea. This pinnacle offrepparttar 134221 eastern coast of Borneo is an oceanic magnet for marine life. As soon as you enterrepparttar 134222 crystal clear waters of Sipadan Island, you'll understand why you have endured a journey that has taken you halfway aroundrepparttar 134223 world.
