East Malaysia, located on the northern part of the island of Borneo, is a treasure trove of natural wonders and indigenous culture. Sabah is home to Mount Kinabalu, Southeast Asia’s highest peak, and some of the world's most spectacular diving sites, including Sipadan Island. Sarawak offers a different kind of adventure, with its vast rainforests, national parks like Gunung Mulu, and encounters with diverse wildlife, including orangutans. East Malaysia is less populated and more rugged than the peninsula, making it a haven for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers looking to explore its untamed wilderness, traditional longhouses and diverse ecosystems.
