Sabah - Tanjung Aru Beach & Perdana Park, Kota Kinabalu

Day 1 at Kota Kinabalu, Sabah!

Good weather!

Once we touched down at Kota Kinabalu airport, we rented a car and started our 5 days trip in Sabah! It is more convenient to travel in Sabah through self-driving since the time is more flexible and we can stop anytime anywhere we want!

P/s: There are quite a lot of car rental company available at the airport.

First, we checked in at 1Borneo Apartment which is very near to University Malaysia Sabah (UMS). We rented a 2-bedroom apartment which is better than expected, equipped with basic facilities like water heater, washing machine, TV, AirCond, cooking equipment and fridge. Suitable for a group of friends and family!

Spacious room and considered fully furnished lol.

The only thing to complain is the water discharge in bathroom is abit clogged, so the water cannot discharge quickly.

After some rest, we headed to Tanjung Aru Beach! Tanjung Aru Beach is located near  to KK International Airport. The beach stretches to over 2km long and it is famous with the panoramic sunset view!

Waiting for the sunset!

Had a very good weather that evening! Awesome sunset :)

The best sunset by the beach I ever had!

When the sky turned dark, we start hunting for food. There are some local mamak stalls, bar and even seafood restaurant along the beach!

Giant ABC we ordered! Top with some fruits and durian flavored ice cream! We ordered avocado juice, coconut and satay too :)

After that, we went to Perdana Park which is just few minutes drive from Tanjung Aru Beach. Perdana Park is a community project done by Timatch Sdn. Bhd..

The park is very well maintained while locals enjoy themselves jogging and even cycling there.
Main attraction here is the musical fountain!

The show started around 7pm, with total 3 shows per day. There is a 30-minute interval between each show.

Welcomed by this!

Enjoy the music, enjoy the night :)

Kids are so excited to see this.

Left Perdana Park after watching 2 shows :P Goodnight KK!
