⏰Important time:
👉You can check the sunset time in Sabah on your mobile phone. The probability is around 18:00 recently, and it is completely down around 18:30. You can see the sunset changing different colors throughout the process. It is recommended to wait until it gets dark before leaving. If you are lucky, you can also encounter beach fireworks.
🗺Recommended itinerary before watching the sunset:
Island hopping or around the beach island, basically return to the pier at 16:30.
👉Take a taxi to the beach at 16:40, navigate to 'Tanjung aru first beach', you need to grab a good position for taking pictures, otherwise there will be people in the picture. Traffic in Sabah starts to jam from 17:00 in the evening, you can take a taxi in advance or walk a distance after watching the sunset.
📍Location:
Many people are hesitant to go to the beach or Shangri-La Hotel Sunset Bar to watch the sunset. Don't worry about coming out on vacation, if you can't, just watch! Two! Scene!
🏖Tanjung Aru Beach

📌Warm little Tips
⛅There may be beautiful sunsets on cloudy or cloudy days.
If it's not raining, don't give up, there may be surprises. The weather was average when I went, and the sunset burned the entire sky through the thick clouds.
🗓Arrange to watch the sunset in advance, don't just rely on the mangroves.
The itinerary of the mangroves mostly includes watching the sunset. But the half-day tour itinerary is full, and each family arranges differently. Eating buffet dinner + watching the sunset is free activity time, and it is likely to have missed the beach.
🎒The sunset is high tide, wear slippers and bring a waterproof bag.
Don't throw things on the beach just to free your hands to take pictures. Some are not safe, and the tide is likely to wet the backpack. If you bring a tripod to take pictures, try to choose a sturdy one or insert it into the sand.
📷Most of the sunsets are silhouettes, and the flash is turned on after dark.
You can make some big moves, pretend to take pictures and look at the phone, or directly record the video and screenshot it later.
