PO Box 458 - Block B, Lot 36, Semporna Seafront Semporna, Sabah, Malaysia
Sipadan. Sipadan. Sipadan. That is all you hear in these parts. "You must go to Sipadan."(in a European accent) So we went to Sipadan. The famous dive spot with barricuda schools, sharks, beautiful coral, giant sea turtles and too much more to mention. The resorts on this island got kicked off and it's now a national park. We stayed at a neighb...
A travel blog entry from Semporna by mericanomadMalcolm is a certified PADI recreational diver now!! We are currently spending a few days in Semporna where one of the best dive sites in the world is located, and Malx decided that he would like to learn to dive. (Well, actually he decided it beforehand, which is why we are here in the first place). So, as of two days ago, Malx is an official s...
A travel blog entry from Semporna by twoeldersAfter our jungle adventures we headed down through the billions of hectares of palm oil plantations to, yet another, concrete jungle called Semporna. Why did we go here? For world class diving! Although I had already booked, I was a bit early, but I managed to start my open water course the next day. I was with two lovely people, a Welsh girl (S...
A travel blog entry from Semporna, Sabah by angela_ukOn the bus to Semporna I met a couple of orang putis who were (unsurprisingly) planning on diving. Nils was from Sweden, and had already travelled for some time, having taken the trans-siberian railway into China, and headed through Tibet and Nepal himself, so we had a good chat and he gave me a few tips for my own journey. Tim was a fellow Eng...
A travel blog entry from Semporna by ali_mRight then. Its not been funny hobbling around KK, like Douglas bleeding Bader, but there is a distinct kinabalu hangover in my leggies. Time for a spot of sub-aquatic sport, methinks. A simple enough travel arrangemnt. Get the 55ringgit flight (thats 8 quid) to Tawau, get picked up by the dive school and get chaffeured for an hour, to the dive ...
A travel blog entry from Semporna / Pulau Sipidan by jamesemorrow(Christopher wrote this entry.) Having heard that the best snorkeling in the world is in the Sulu Sea off the east coast of Sabah, we headed to Semporna to squeeze in one more swim with the underwater galaxies. The bus ride from Sandakan was memorable only for the videos. We watched the same hour of Troy twice because the disc got stuck. That wa...
A travel blog entry from Semporna and Pulau Sibuan by kate.leuschkeJust a quick update! On a whim, I decided to go to Sipadan, one of the worlds top dive sites. After a 10 hour bus(es) ride from hell, I arrived in Semporna, coastal town at southern tip of Borneo, and I immediately started studying for my Open Water course. Within 2 hours, I went through the first 3 of 5 modules for the course. The next day, I d...
A travel blog entry from Sipadan by rcysYou may wish to look away now if you are easily bored by my enthusing about diving, cos basically thats what I'm going to do this entry!! Firstly though, I am going to moan. I was really looking forward to the next part of the trip - I had planned to go to Kinabantagan, the jungle area around the river of the same name, for 2 days of wildlife sp...
