General Information

Mataking Reef Resort is situated on Mataking Island. It takes less than 1 hour by boat to reach Mataking Island, from the Semporna town in the province of Sabah. 

Mataking Island is composed of two islands, the big (Mataking Besar) and the small (Mataking Kecil), but the area is only 40 acres. During the low tide, the sand bridge connects the two islands that are separately 500meter distance and forms a trailing white sand beach for walking on the water. Unlimited snorkeling in the crystal clear sea, surrounded by tropical fish and the colorful underwater world. You can also be swinging on the sea and enjoy family fun. The post office located under the sea is the most attractive point for those diving enthusiasts from all over the world. Divers put their sealed letters into the mailboxes on the bottom of the sea. The staff will collect them regularly and mail your letters. Shortly after, you will receive a letter from the sea to yourself.
