Discover a Lesser-Known Beach Getaway in Malaysia’s Tropical Island

Combining mountains, beaches and tropical rainforest, Sabah in the northern region of Malaysian Borneo  is the ideal getaway for travellers that seek outdoor adventures

Combining mountains, beaches and tropical rainforest, Sabah in the northern region of Malaysian Borneo  is the ideal getaway for travellers that seek outdoor adventures. For those who love water, jellyfish season comes to an end around mid-April, meaning visitors can enjoy care-free swims in the crystal-clear sea.

Make a splash with a stay at the five-star Shangri-La Rasa Ria, situated on the northwest coast in Kota Kinabalu.. From paddle boarding and kayaking to windsurfing and jet skiing, there’s an abundance of options for water babies to experience.

All guests can enjoy one hour of body board and ocean kayak usage as part of their stay at Shangri-La Rasa Ria, but for the thrill-seekers looking to go the extra mile, the Donut Blast Ride or Banana boat may be the option of choice. Those looking to simply relax and enjoy the sunshine can spend their days on the private beaches sun loungers with a book – or cocktail – in hand.
