SEAVENTURES SIPADAN: THE EXPERIENCE

Experience a totally unique approach to diving and snorkeling Sipadan with the Seaventures Five Star PADI IDC Centre & Dive Resort, the first PADI dive resort in Borneo to achieve the PADI Project AWARE Eco Resort status and one of the only PADI IDC Centres in and around Sipadan, Borneo, Sabah and THE only dive platform of its kind in the world! With Seaventures Dive Resort it couldn’t be easier with a lift that literally lowers you from the top of the Seaventures platform into the water for unlimited house reef diving. For those of you who really want to increase your dive times and maximise your diving whilst here NITROX is available. If you are not yet trained in how to use NITROX the course is also available.

SEAVENTURES SIPADAN: THE DIVING EXPERIENCE

As you float off from the lift and descend into the warm blue waters surrounding the Seaventures House Reef you are met with a totally unique diving experience. From schools of silvery barracuda to the tiniest of crazy critters hiding amongst the artificial reefs and the brightly coloured corals there is always something new to discover. With Sipadan only 20 minutes away by boat and Mabul and Kapalai dive sites only 5 minutes away you are in the centre of some of the best dive sites around Borneo, Malaysia. Boat dives go out daily to each of the dive sites, Sipadan Mabul and Kapalai so you will be sure to be diving the best sites of all three locations.

SEAVENTURES SIPADAN: THE ENTERTAINMENT EXPERIENCE

Get the best of both worlds and take the boat over to Mabul island, wander through the village, an ideal spot for photographs of the Bajau Laut (Sea Gypsies) and real island life.

The Seaventures Sun Deck, one of the highest points in Mabul, is the ideal place to relax after a dive with a cool beer, warm breezes and the sounds of the famous Sea Gypsy Band drifting up from the main deck mixed with the tantalizing aromas from the BBQ. Food at Seaventures is known all around Mabul Island as being the best in the area, so whether it is western cuisine, Chinese food or a more local style you are after, you will find it here.

Staying in touch with the real world couldn’t be easier with wi-fi  in all guest rooms and the main deck, and an internet room where you can check emails, upload your photos to facebook and chat with friends.
