The beach in Sipitang is a local gem that hasn't yet attracted many visitors. The scenery is picturesque, especially during sunset. However, the presence of litter is a major drawback. It's important to take action to preserve the beach's beauty for future generations.

This beach is a hidden gem and a local attraction in Sipitang, alongside Esplanade. However, it's important for the Sipitang local authority to take care of its cleanliness and enforce strict rules. The amount of rubbish being thrown away is damaging the natural beauty of the beach.

The sunset view was stunning, but the beach was quite dirty and had a lot of jellyfish. After only an hour there, I ended up with red marks all over my legs.
