Sapi Island

Malaysia / Sabah / Kota Kinabalu /

Sapi Island is close to Gaya Island, and in fact can be accessed at low tide over a sand bar at the South-Western end of Gaya. It is also very popular and is considered to be one of the best places for swimming and having a picnic. The waters around Sapi are extremely clear and there are many coral beds around the island. There are crab eating monkeys on the island, and the magnificent white bellied Sea Eagle has its nest on the island. It cannot be seen from the city centre but it is clearly visible from Sutera Harbour and Tanjung Aru.
