Hotspot for honey mooners

There is always something in store for honeymooners or couples seeking romantic holiday in Sarawak, be it in a tropical rainforest or in the city. Romance does not have to be limited to intimate moments exclusively; it may also mean spending quality time doing fun activities with your other half.

Lakei Island, Bako National Park

For adventurous couples, a trip to Sarawak would not be complete without hopping on a boat and sailing off on a journey into the wilderness, at Bako National Park. It has 17 trails, among which is the secluded isle of Lakei on the northern tip of the park.

Whether it’s a walk together on the white sandy beach or exploring the history and wildlife of the island, Lakei promises an experience of a lifetime. Couples can learn the island’s history at the mausoleum of Datuk Haji Ibrahim and the Solomun Pool. Follow Pa Amit trail that takes you to a picture-perfect viewpoint, where you can marvel at the view of the northern coast of Bako National Park and Mount Santubong, with the glistening turquoise water as the backdrop. For the full Sarawak experience, spend the night in a tented camp with your loved one while listening to the wildlife in the tropical rainforest and waves crashing on the beach. For something more intimate, nothing beats enjoying each other’s company, side-by-side while gazing at the stars or catching the sunset on the secluded beach. Even a day trip here can yield a magical experience.
