Sabah is a treasure trove of unique crafts and souvenirs. Harvested from the surrounding seas and farms, pearls are an absolute must-buy. They can be purchased loose or in pre-set jewellery form. Other great buys are beadwork, hand-woven baskets, the ‘Kain Dastar’ material, jewellery and Sabah tea.
