Malaysia Diving
A few suggestions for where to dive in the Malaysia:
  • Sipadan is widely regarded as Malaysia's best diving and is up there with the best dive destinations in the world. Divers first started visiting Sipadan in 1984 and Jacques Cousteau described it as the best shore diving in the world. The tiny island that drops off 600m into the Sulawesi sea is famous for sharks, turtles, barracuda and humphead parrotfish, all of which are virtually guaranteed, but in fact you can see much more than that at Sipadan. All sorts of marine visitors pass by including whale sharks, thresher sharks, hammerhead sharks, manta rays and eagle rays.
  • Mabul should not be overlooked while you are near Sipadan because there is some amazing "macro" or "muck" diving at Mabul.
  • The stunning stlited water village of Kapalai also has some wonderful macro divers on it's Litigan reefs. Mandarin fish can be seen just a few fin kicks from the resort jetty.
  • Visit Layang Layang at the right time and you'll be treated to the sight of schooling hammerhead sharks.
  • The Perhentian Islands offer chilled out diving off West Malaysia's east coast
