Famous Underwater World Tourist Center • Semporna

🌟Highlight features: Semporna is a famous underwater world tourism center, which means "perfect" in the Bajau and Malay languages. Xenbenna was once just a small fishing village, but as the neighboring diving paradise Sipadan became more and more famous, Xenbenna gradually became known to outsiders. It is surrounded by turquoise sea water, and it and its affiliated islands are like a dream island in the real world. The white sandy beaches 🏖️, towering coconut trees, colorful corals 🪸, and fish 🐟 swimming in the sea 🌊 always attract tourists from all over the world. The indigenous people of Simpang Beluru belong to the Bajau tribe, also known as the Bajao tribe. They "live by the sea" and rely on diving to catch fish 🐟 for a living, and are considered the last oceanic nomadic ethnic group. Most of them live in long-legged wooden houses 🏠 in the sea, and use a water transportation tool called "lepa" in their daily lives. Many fishermen also live on handmade boats all year round. ❤️Recommendation reason: In the waters of Semporna, there are islands of all sizes, and the four most popular👏 islands are: Pom Pom Island, Mataking Island, Kapalai Island, and Mabul Island. Each of the four has its own unique style, suitable for tourists with different preferences. ✅Bang Bang Island: A typical private island with pure white sandy beaches 🏖️ ✅Madajingdao Island: With a large area and lush vegetation, it is an excellent place to experience deep diving 🤿. ✅Kapalai Island: Actually, it can't be called an island, it's just a sandbank. The holiday ⛱️village here is directly built on the water with small wooden houses. It is a honeymoon paradise popular among couples. ✅Ma Bu Island: Half of the island is a resort, while the other half is inhabited by the Bao Yao ethnic minority. The life and cultural atmosphere of the indigenous people, combined with other beautiful coastal scenery, form the unique landscape of Xianbenna. Here, you can go diving 🤿, boating, surfing, or set off to several famous islands from here. I am Xiaomo, love traveling, love taking photos 📷, love sharing... Remember to give Xiaomo a like and follow. Xiaomo will continue to update travel records from around the world.
