Sabah's Luma' Kembara is a small resort with a big heart

We've all heard of Semporna, a town on the east coast of Sabah. Semporna is the gateway to the Tun Sakaran Marine Park, a group of eight islands with breathtaking dive and snorkel sites. If it can be believed, the islands in Semporna are more breathtaking in person than in photos and videos.

I was privileged to see this beauty for myself and I must admit that it holds some of the most gorgeous and lively sceneries above and under water. From the sandy white beaches and the vast ocean to coral reefs teeming with life, it is truly a wonderful place for a holiday.
