Lankayan Island Resort

Lankayan Island

This little tropical island resort in the Sulu Sea, about 90 minutes by boat from the port of Sandakan, sits within a large Marine Protected Area and offers excellent diving opportunities and time to rest away from the rush.

Head beneath the waves to spot whale sharks, sea turtles, rays and dozens of other species weaving between the remains of a wrecked ship that lies just offshore. Relax with barbeques on the beach at sunset and enjoy the gentler pace.

Leisure: wreck diving, snorkelling, sunset bar, beach BBQs

Rooms: 23 chalets
