Beautiful island indeed but it does take 2 hour drive from KK to Kota Belud. We go to the Jetty to take the speedboat which takes less than 1 hour but the sea was choppy, even worse when we were coming back.
The beach was nice with turquoise blue waters and swaying palm trees.
Our guide Matt was professional, made sure that we got there and back to the hotel safely so kudos to him on that for doing a great job in this area but I do feel he wasn't the most talkative and seemed more interested in listening to his music while on the coach going and coming back which gave me a little negative impression - I guess some people are not as sociable.
Overall, I had a good experience
