Best tourist season in Sabah: a guide to tourism and transportation in Sabah

Sabah is located in Malaysia. There is no typhoon or earthquake here, so it is called "the land under the wind". It is rich in resources and has pleasant coastal scenery. What preparations should I make to go to such a beautiful tourist destination? Come and have a look with Bian Xiao.

The best time to travel in Sabah is in the tropics, and it is summer all year round. The temperature is relatively high, and the ultraviolet rays are particularly strong, even on cloudy days. The annual temperature in Sabah is around 23-34℃, with little change, but there are frequent thunderstorms. So prepare rain gear or rain-proof outdoor clothes. Sabah has never had bad weather and natural disasters, so it is suitable for water sports in any season and is not affected. But May-September is the dry season in Sabah, with less precipitation, which is more suitable for tourism.

Malaysia is a purely religious country, and many Sabah people believe in Islam, so they can't wear vests, shorts and miniskirts to enter mosques. In addition, Islam prohibits eating pork, which imposes great moral constraints on people and requires high relations between men and women. If you go to the water mosque in Sabah, you should also be careful not to shoot short entertainment videos or sing and dance in other people's religious occasions. You should respect other people's religious beliefs (bad things have happened before).

Frequently asked questions about tourism in Sabah 1. Is there a seasonal time limit for island tourism?

No, Malaysia has a tropical climate, and the weather conditions are similar all year round. However, during the rainy season (165438+ 10 to April of the following year), there is more precipitation, and the unsafe factors at sea increase. Many tourism projects will be postponed due to the weather, so we should make arrangements according to the actual weather conditions.

2. What are the necessary items for island tourism?

Sunscreen, sunscreen cap, swimsuit, autumn trousers (there are many mosquitoes when climbing mountains), mosquito repellent, professional diving equipment (issued by professionals if you travel for one day), life jacket (issued by professionals if you travel for one day), cash (in case you don't bring cash when you want to play offshore projects) and change clothes.

3. What are the safety problems of island tourism?

Water safety: When snorkeling or doing other water sports, wear life jackets, follow the guidance of coaches, do not swim to remote places alone, and be careful of animals and plants on the seabed, such as corals and jellyfish. When taking a boat, sit still and don't put your body or hands out of the boat to touch the sea.

Beach safety: There are many killers hidden on the beach, such as shells and sharp rubbish. If you want to walk on the beach, you must pay attention to your safety.

Mountaineering safety: Mountain roads are generally steep, the temperature on the mountain is lower than that under the mountain, and there are many mosquitoes. Remember to wear professional hiking shoes and casual long-sleeved trousers, and then prepare some snacks that can quickly replenish your strength, such as chocolate.

Kota Kinabalu International Airport in Sabah is located about 10 km south of Kota Kinabalu. It takes about 20 minutes to drive from the airport to the city. Take a taxi from the airport to Kota Kinabalu 35 RM. You can take a taxi when you get out of the airport during the day, and there is also a service desk at the airport to call a taxi for you, but there are fewer cars. In addition, booking a one-day trip to Sabah usually provides value-added services such as "pick-up".

How to pick up the plane

1. Take a taxi, and take a taxi at the airport to Kota Kinabalu for RM 35. You can take a taxi from the airport during the day, but it is rare. There is also a service desk at the airport, which can help you call a taxi.

If you sign up for a one-day tour in Sabah, you may get a pick-up service.

Kota Kinabalu city car (to attractions, supermarkets, restaurants, etc. )

During my stay in Kota Kinabalu, I hardly met a few taxis, all of which were called by the hotel. It's too difficult to take a taxi, but there are many near shopping malls, docks and restaurants, and the price is a bit expensive, basically RM 20. There are buses in Kota Kinabalu, and there are stop signs at the gates of several hotels and scenic spots, but I really can't stand the feeling of waiting for the bus in the equatorial hot sun.

Wit, of course, I won't use the above mode of transportation, because the agent who booked a one-day tour at that time said that if he booked their one-day tour, he could get an unlimited number of free cars in the city for five days, which made me tempted. As it turns out, this is the wisest decision I made during my trip. In the next few days, I will have a free taxi to Kinabalu, and tell their Chinese customer service WeChat where I want to eat or supermarket. The car will be picked up directly in front of my hotel.
