Pom Pom Island

Island Resort

Pom Pom Island Resort is around 45 minutes by boat from Semporna, Borneo’s coast. It has rich tropical vegetation and is surrounded by white sand and the turquoise waters of the Celebes Sea. It is on part of this beautiful island that Pom Pom Island finds its home.

This little atoll, which takes about an hour to walk around, is often a shelter for both Green and Hawksbill marine turtles that return to the beach at night to nest. During your vacation, if you are lucky, you might witness the hatching of the eggs and release of baby turtles to the sea.
