Tucked into the beautiful north-western coast off Sabah Borneo, Kapalai is a unique resort beach island that is actually a low-tide sandbank above the biodiverse Ligitan Reef. Kapalai Island Beach’s warm turquoise waters and coral reefs make for excellent snorkelling and kayaking. Additionally, the instagrammable stilted overwater chalets, oceanfront luxury restaurants and lush tropics draw worldwide tourists, honeymooners and scuba divers to this place.
