tawau whole day until flight (9.10pm) can do what here?

lol. I stayed at sipadan inn2 and vs hotel before too.
semporna basically nothing much to do la...just a very small town. if makan i recommend the chinese restaurant which is same row with scuba junkies office. the food is very cheap and gooding if you order from the menu where the dish comes with fixed price.
basically, semporna got nothing la.
I guess you are non diver, so 2nd day just go mabul island snorkel lo. U will back at semporna at around 5pm++ d
For me, I won't recommend you go to Tawau. Might as well spend another night at Semporna. Then 3rd day, go Kapalai island snorkel around, back to semporna at around 5pm ++ then terus take taxi go to Tawau airport.
unless u had found something interesting at Tawau la, then i no comment, if not, just skip it.
