Reviews: Sabah Mantanani Islands 1-day tour [Limited-time offer|New resorts|Optional scuba diving/mangrove tour
Guest User2025-11-13
Let me share my honest experience of snorkeling at Mantanani Island: the surprises outweighed the disappointments. The seawater was incredibly clean; you could clearly see corals and small fish of various species while snorkeling, making it a much better experience than other island snorkeling trips I've had. The instructors would lead us to areas with dense schools of fish and even use breadcrumbs to attract them; the feeling of being surrounded by fish was truly magical.
