SIPADAN AREA DIVE RESORTS

With no options on Sipadan Island, many divers head to nearby Mabul Island, which boasts a range of accommodation options and dive operators. Nearby Kapalai Island is a private island with a single resort over the water.

For a secluded diving experience, consider staying at the Avillion Layang Layang Resort, offering direct access to pristine dive sites.

A limited number of permits are issued daily for diving at Sipadan Island, so many of the dives during your holiday will be in the surrounding area. Diving Mabul and Kapalai Islands is a macro photographers dream, with critters such as flamboyant cuttlefish, harlequin shrimp, pygmy seahorses, frogfish, blue-ringed octopus, and mandarinfish. Mabul Island is notably one of the top muck diving destinations in the world. With numerous dive sites to choose from, theres something for everyone to enjoy throughout their stay.
