Sipadan Island is a scuba-diver’s paradise. It is an oceanic island sitting a short way off the southeastern coast of the state of Sabah in Malaysian Borneo. Sipadan is a world class dive destination which Jacques Cousteau once described  as ‘an untouched piece of art’. There are amazing species of marine life which include the amazing barracuda, whale sharks, beautiful parrotfishes, turtles, and many others. After careful observation, you will be greeted with the sight of the turtle tomb that is covered with limestone caves. There is no accommodation on Sipadan.
