Travel Tip: KUDAT: SABAH’S SEAFOOD HAVEN

5 stars
Published on Feb 3, 2008 by frieda for Kudat

The whole Malaysian state of Sabah in Borneo is a seafood haven. People from Taiwan, Singapore, Korea and Japan will go to Sabah and seafood will be a top thing due to its freshness and richness.

But let me tell you the where to find best seafood experience. It’s in Kudat, the northernmost part of Sabah. It’s the part of the state that houses the Tanjung Sempang Mengayau (TSM); the tip of Borneo (read my profile for TSM experience!).

You know why seafood in Kudat is the freshest and cheapest? It is because Kudat is surrounded by the sea on its three corners of the wind – west, north and east. To the east is the South China Sea and the east is the Sulu Sea.

Anywhere you go that serves seafood, it will be cheap. But the cheapest is if you go to the jetty itself where the fishing boats land after a fishing trip. The jetty is located at the Sidek Esplanade, at the town of Kudat itself.

You buy retail but the price is wholesale. How nice! After making your fishy purchase and if you are travelling on a public transport such as a bus, make sure you look for a small basin on the bus and place you seafood there. The bus drivers don’t want to get the bus floor wet and fishy smelly.
