Borneo sibuan scuba diving - sibuan island
dive sites of borneo Malaysia.
Sibuan Island, locally known as 'Battleship Island' for it‘s
extinctive shape, is located  app.
30 mins by speed boat from
Semporna. Sibuan is one of the smallest islands in the whole bay
but it is very popular for swimmers and snorkelers and certainly the
most photographed island after Sipadan.
Sibuan Island got a gentle falling, white sandy beach that is
perfect for swimmers and non swimmers alike, someone can play in the
shallows without being worried about stepping on any sharp coral.
Further outside, at the drop off, there are beautiful coral
formations to discover with plenty of fish hiding in between.
The unique cuttlefish as well as turtles and sting rays can be seen
here quite often. More experienced divers will appreciate the chance
to get close up to mandarin fish, frog fish, pygmy seahorse and
ghost pipe fish. With its combination of shallow plateaus and steep
slopes this little treasure island is a regular stop over during
your
open water diver courses and experienced diver programs.
