Why Go?
Sabah's beauty is quite simply gut-wrenching. This is one of the most physically stunning
places on Earth, a land of deep green jungle, craggy mountains and shockingly blue ocean
that all seems to collide into one moving, magnificent vista.
It's a land for adventure enthusiasts and yet, we must stress, not only adventure enthusi-
asts. Many treks around Mt Kinabalu, for example, really consist of vigorous hikes, jaunts
you want to be fit to attempt, but don't need to be in Olympic shape to finish. Similarly, the
diving in East Sabah - some of the best in the world - is easily accessible to beginners.
And anyone can sit on a boat and appreciate the majesty of spotting clever lizards, prowl-
ing civets, doe-eyed loris and great ginger orangutans in the wild.
