My Diving Trip to Sipadan

Aug 8-12, 2009. My Diving trip to Sipadan. This is the cheapest air fare we ever got to travel to Sabah, only RM60, round trip from KL to/back Tawau. Cheaper than my taxi fare from my house to airport. We book the airticket a year before during the promotion time.

We flew from KL LCCT to Tawau. Take approx. 2 hours of van ride to Semporna. Semporna is blessed with 5 top diving sites, Pulau Sipadan, Pulau Mabul, Pulau Kappalai, Pulau Mataking and Pulau Sibuan. We dive around Sipadan, Mabul and Kappalai. Sipadan was rated as one of the world's top ten dive destinations. This is my second time to Sipadan.
Our accomodation is Seaventure Diver Center. Seaventure platform was once an oil rig and were move from Panama, to Singaporean water and lastly to Mabul. It start operating in 1997.
