Getting to the Sipadan Water Village

The most common approach is through Kota Kinabalu, in Borneo – the largest airport in the area. From there on you would need to fly to nearby Tawau – if flights are not available on the same day, the resort can take care of the bookings you need in Kota Kinabalu. From Tawau, transportation is offered to Semporna, the nearest town – after which a sixty minute speed boat drive will take you to Mabul and then to the resort. The resort can also take care of booking hotels in Tawau, if the flight arrives in too late.

The Sipadan Water Village employees will have the possibility to help you all the way to and from the resort, taking care of necessary transportation and bookings, making sure that your road is not more complicated than necessary. Once there, the village and its naturally beautiful environments will provide you with all the relaxation you need to get away from the everyday stress.
