Diving
Malaysia is fast becoming one
of the world’s leading dive
destinations with one of the
richest marine environments in
the Indo-Pacific Basin. The
incredible bio-diversity of
marine life, coupled with
beautiful islands, white sandy
beaches and clear warm waters,
keeps divers coming back time
and time again.
Top dive sites around Malaysia
include diverse underwater
geography such as sloping
reefs, coral blocks, wall
dives, deep dives, drift dives
and wreck dives. A dip below
the warm sea’s surface
guarantees you an astounding
experience, with a
concentration of vibrant and
exotic marine life rarely
rivalled anywhere else in the
world.
From schooling Hammerhead
Sharks, to huge schools of
barracudas and various species
of turtles, to the bizarre
Frogfish and Ghost Pipefish,
there is always something
fascinating awaiting you. It’s
no exaggeration to say that
almost every time a marine
bio-diversity survey is
conducted in Malaysia’s
tropical seas, the species
list increases!
Dive centres in Malaysia are
numerous, well equipped and
certified by all the
internationally recognised
dive agencies like PADI, SSI
and SSAC for maintaining their
standards of safety and
professionalism. Naturally,
all scuba diving courses in
Malaysian waters are also
endorsed by these certifying
agencies.
After completing your scuba
course, get outfitted with the
latest scuba equipment as all
international brands are
available from dive centres in
Malaysia. Almost all the
islands in Malaysia cater to
divers of all levels of
experience – be it easy,
shallow drift-diving, to
advanced wreck-diving or
technical diving.
