Northern Coast and Islands
Sipadan Mabul Resort
The resort has excellent cabins with private facilities, ample fresh water, air-conditioning and verandas. There is a good beach, swimming pool, restaurant and a bar beautifully located at the end of the pier – an excellent location from which to watch the sunset.
The diving around Mabul itself is excellent and is particularly renowned for muck diving and a profusion of macro species. However, the main attraction for divers is the world-renowned island of Sipadan with its large population of sea turtles, fabulous coral gardens and large shoals of pelagic fish.

The tour was excellent. Really well organised at short notice. It was all that we expected. Have already recommended Reef and Rainforest to friends. Danum Valley was the best – close up views of Orangutans, numerous frogs and birds we hadn’t seen before. A monitor lizard in the river by our lodge was about 6 inches long and quite a surprise.
