A world-class dive location off the east coast of Borneo, Sabah. Here you can find huge varieties of schooling fish, Reef Sharks, Turtles and if you are lucky Hammerhead Sharks and the majestic Manta Rays. The island itself is also stunning, with white sands and glistening waters. What makes diving on Sipadan Island really special is the sheer amount of fish and marine creatures you will see. You won’t see a few turtles on a dive, you’ll see plenty!
