Diving on Sipadan
was Pioneered by Borneo Divers. Above the water, it's just
a tiny 40 acre spot of jungle with a white sandy beach. But
below the water, Sipadan's vertical topography and abundant
marine life make it one of the world's most desired destinations.
Diving around Sipadan is not rated as the best in the world
without good reason. The waters are calm and warm, visibility
is good, and the quantity and variety of marine life is astounding.
On an average day of diving at Sipadan, you would expect to
see at least 50 Green Turtles, a dozen sharks, large schools
of Barracudas, Jacks, Fusiliers and Batfish. A mere 15m from
the beach, there is a vertical wall starting at a depth of
3m and plunges straight down to 600m.
