Marine Leisure

Blade-sunseeker-jetski.jpgSabah, at the northern end of Borneo, became a yachting destination in the late nineties thanks to the opening of the Sutera Harbour marina in Kota Kinabalu. This marina was then followed by 3 others in Labuan, Kudat and Miri (Sarawak).

In Sabah you will find tropical islands, including coral atolls and oceanic islands, pristine beaches, crystal clear waters, giant rivers, dense tropical jungle, high mountains, and an abundance of nature & wildlife.
