| Scuba Diving Malaysia-Pulau Mabul
Mabul Island is located some 25 minutes north of Sipadan Island, this island offers a different world of diving opportunities from most other diving locations. Here is a macro diving paradise where you will be able to find rare macro world inhabitants hard to find at other dive sites.
Among
the international diving community, the island's reputation
as one of the world's best muck diving site is no secret. Muck
diving in Mabul, a term used to describe limited visibility
dives at shallow sites with usually sandy bottoms, is one of
diving's new rages. It focuses on encounters with unusual little
critters popularly known as macro-life. Muck diving is a world
away from steep wall and coral reefs, with their almost limitless
visibility and easy-to-spot reef and pelagic life. In other
words, muck diving offers you the opportunity to flirt with
the more bizarre and unusual life marine life to be found.
Mabul Diving
gives macro photographers some great opportunities to capture
some extremely rare ecological species which have carved a niche
for themselves in the underwater world around here. Look out
for species like multicolored nudibranches, ghost pipefish,
devil scorpionfish, stonefish, mantis shrimps, mandarin fish,
ribbon eels, snake eels, frogfish, seahorses and crocodile fish,
all of which make these sites their home.
Mabul
is the home of dive resorts including Sipadan-Mabul
Resort and Mabul Water Bungalows. For hard core divers,
Seaventures
is a must as they have many dive permits.
