Sipadan Mabul Resort

Scroll

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.

Local Wildlife

I would like to express my thanks to you for preparing the splendid itinerary, covering my recent trip to Borneo. I achieved every objective set, from reaching the summit of Mount Kinabalu to photographing wild orang-utans, proboscis monkeys and crocodiles, not to mention watching turtles laying their eggs and the hatchlings returning to the sea, plus all the other fascinating wildlife that was observed. The organisation on the ground was seamless and every connection and transfer in a somewhat complex itinerary went like clockwork. Accommodation and cuisine in the various lodges was excellent…superb diving at both Mabul and Sipadan. Once again, thank you – we shall be back.
