\"Banggi<\/a> I was taking a bus to Kudat last week. It was a 3 hour trip. A pretty girl, sitting next to me, fell in sleep and leaned on my shoulder for hour. She gave me a sweet smile when she got down the bus. I saw she was heading to the Kudat \/ Banggi Ferry Terminal, so I was curious if there were more pretty girls like her on Banggi Island. <\/p>\n

Banggi Island (Pulau Banggi) is the biggest island of Sabah. Before I went there, I only knew this island was a BIG dot on the Sabah map. That’s all. I never heard anything about it. <\/p>\n

How to go to Banggi Island<\/h4>\n

To go to Banggi Island, you can take a ferry at the jetty of Kudat town (see schedule below). There are a few companies offers ferry transfer back and forth Kudat and Banggi. You better wait there earlier than departure time b’coz they may move a few minutes sooner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
