Hanging Gardens

Hanging Gardens takes Sipadan's wall and tilts it past vertical, so terrace after terrace of overhang drips with soft coral in grays, mauves, and dusty oranges, growth hanging downward like planted balconies. It is the island's texture dive. Photographers work the ceilings for longnose hawkfish and flatworms while turtles rest on the terraces at eye level and leaf-shaped batfish hover in the recesses. Sharks pass wider here than at the points, in less of a hurry. When current elsewhere turns the corners feral, this stretch usually stays civilized, which makes it the connoisseur's mid-morning pick.

您此行的高光时刻: Overhanging soft-coral terraces, turtles bedded on the balconies, the island's gentlest marquee wall

地形地貌: Terraced overhanging wall draped in soft coral

水流: Usually a soft drift along the southwest wall.

危险因素: Overhangs complicate direct ascent in spots; otherwise benign by Sipadan standards.

许可证与规定: Permit day required.

保育: The overhang growth is slow-growing and brittle; exhaled bubbles and fins both leave marks, so trim matters.

高氧（Nitrox）: 在此值得使用：这些潜点的深度范围内，富氧空气（nitrox）能有效延长免减压停留时间，前提是您已接受相关培训。
