Catamaran Snorkelling Adventure and Sunset Cruise in Kota Kinabalu
Morning Session 9:00 AM to 1:30 PM Start your adventure with a hotel pickup and a short transfer to the jetty, where your catamaran awaits. Sail into the waters of Kota Kinabalu while enjoying breathtaking views of the city skyline, nearby islands, and tropical greenery. Cruise along the coast of Sepanggar Island and Gaya Island, stopping at private snorkelling spots directly from the boat without docking. Dive into the clear waters and explore vibrant coral reefs, colourful tropical fish, and possibly gentle sea turtles gliding beneath you. Enjoy optional paddle boarding and kayaking activities after snorkelling. Recharge with a delicious lunch on board while surrounded by scenic ocean views. Relax, swim, and soak up the tropical sunshine before sailing back to the jetty. Transfer back to your hotel at the end of the morning session. Afternoon Sunset Session 3:00 PM to 7:30 PM Board the catamaran for a scenic sailing experience towards Gaya Island. Stop at private snorkelling spots along the island coast and dive directly from the boat into colourful coral gardens filled with tropical marine life. Take part in optional paddle boarding and kayaking activities in the calm island waters. Watch the sky transform into stunning sunset colours as the catamaran sails towards a perfect sunset viewpoint. Enjoy dinner on board while surrounded by glowing ocean scenery during sunset. Cruise leisurely along Kota Kinabalu's illuminated waterfront as night falls over the city. Return to the jetty at 7:30 PM and transfer back to your hotel after the cruise experience.
