  • Mabul Borneo Divers Reviews

    Mabul Borneo Divers Reviews

  • "The dive guide was great (ensuring the divers doing the body check, explaining the signs again, always having all divers in view under water and asking if ok, and finding the good places to see under water; Our dive guide to Sipadan particularly took care on the currents" - Nils Vormelker.

    "First time to Borneo Divers, I always knew that there was a quota to dive at Sipadan and I was quite surprised that I managed to get three days of diving at Sipadan in 5 days of stay. On top of that, the reason why I chose them is because they are willing to pair me up with other guests so that I won't need to pay the expensive single occupancy surcharge." - Peter Ong

    "Having been to the Mabul/Sipadan islands eight times since Nov 2007, Borneo Divers has been my base when diving Mabul, Sipadan and its surrounding islands... I stayed here 5 times with the last being in Dec of 2009... on the other 3 occasions, i stayed at seaventures, SWV and a budget guesthouse. What made me keep going back to Borneo Divers was the the exceptional staff there who ensured the best experience for my stay from the very 1st trip was simply awesome..." - Anonymous
