Tawau is the administrative center of the Tawau Division and the third largest town in Sabah after Kota Kinabalu and Sandakan. Tawau is located at the south-east coast of Sabah; facing the Celebes Sea to the east and the interior mountain ranges to the west. It’s a place well known for its fresh, delectable, and moderately-priced seafood.
The main town area can be divided into three sections—Sabindo, Fajar and Tawau Lama (Old Tawau). Federal House, where most government offices are situated is at the Sabindo area. Fajar is the commercial area where the major banks are located. Tawau Lama is the original part of Tawau where the Tawau Central Market is located.
