Bakau Biru Eco Camp

Pulau Bum Bum Semporna, 91308 Semporna, Sabah, Malaysia

Dara Ivanova

Definitely recommend! It’s a nice place if you want to spend some time on the coast near Semporna, but away from the noise of the city. And you have the sunrise just for yourself😊 The hosts are very kind! We slept on our own hammock, but they can also proved you with a tent if you don’t have one. They can also offer to cook for you. We rented their paddle board and went to the coral reefs (20-30 mins paddling in one direction). They even let us to rent their own scooter and we made a triple around the island, which was very nice of them! Have in mind that the conditions are basic but there are toilets and you can have a shower. If you want to get there from Semporna the cheapest option is to get one of the public boats from the port near the Fish market (here: 4.4804677, 118.6126031) to to Balimbang on Bum Bum island (RM 2 per person), and from there to get a taxi or to hitchhike to the campsite (the price is between RM 5 and 10 per person).

A very beautiful and natural place that will make you forget about the dirtiness of semporna while still staying close to it. Although the place is extremely rudimentary, the staff was so helpful and we really enjoyed spending some time with them around fire pits or on a boat.
