"Lankayan Island is a great destination and your typical 'Robinson Crusoe' island situated about one and a half hours of the coast of Sandakan in the Sulu Sea.

Due to its close proximity to Turtle Island you are likely to see many turtles when you are snorkelling or diving on the house reef and the resort also has a small hatchery where you can see hatchlings being released into the sea.

This small idyllic island is a great place to spend a few days relaxing before continuing your wildlife experience."

"With an engaging range of outdoor activities, including a Nature Reserve, Orang Utan education centre and an ecologically friendly championship golf course, Shangri-La's Rasa Ria Resort offers the best of Sabah in a lush, 400-acre tropical setting beside exquisite Pantai Dalit Beach.

Situated approximately 45 mins out of the city the Rasa Ria is a great choice for all the family at either the start or at the end of an action packed trip around Sabah."

"Bako National Park covers 2,742 hectares of a rugged sand stone peninsula to the east of the Bako River near Kuching, the capital of Sarawak. Millions of years of erosion have created an impressive and breathtaking coastline of steep cliffs, rocky headlands and stretches of white, sandy bays. Wave erosion at the base of the cliffs has carved many of the rocks into fantastically shaped sea arches and seastacks.

The coastline is also dotted by a sandstone cliff vegetation characteristic of Bako. Other major vegetation types include the mangrove forest, mixed dipterocarp forest, peat swamp forest, kerangas (heath) forest, and kerangas scrub on the plateau; it's possible to see just about every type of vegetation found on Borneo at Bako National Park.

Well worth a visit even to experience the novel way to enter the park- from the sea."
