Borneo Divers Mabul Resort

The company that helped open Sipadan to diving in the 1980s now operates from Mabul Island, running house-reef and muck diving daily and Sipadan trips under the marine park's fixed daily permit system — permits are allocated per resort, so Sipadan days must be planned, not assumed.

Unterkunft: Timber chalets on Mabul with a dive-centered routine; packages usually bundle meals and boat diving.

Preise: Mid-to-upper band for Malaysian Borneo; Sipadan permit days carry park fees. Confirm permit allocation policy and rates with the resort well ahead.
