Maiga Island
Pulau Maiga
A small island in Tun Sakaran Marine Park near Bohey Dulang, with white sand and clear shallows good for snorkeling, and a Bajau settlement.
Maiga Island lies a short distance south of Bohey Dulang, within Tun Sakaran Marine Park. Its fine white sand, along with seagrass beds and coral reefs in the shallows, often host starfish and schools of small fish. It is one of the common snorkeling and lunch stops on the northern island-hopping route. The island has a marine park management post and is home to Bajau families. From Semporna Pier it's about 40 minutes by speedboat, and the marine park fee applies. Remember sun protection, and do not feed the fish.
Opening hours
Daytime, with island-hopping tours (per ferry schedule)
