Pulau Lankayan

Tropical island, water full of macro marine life

Pulau Lankayan was declared a protected area in 2000. The waters surrounding the island offer a large biodiversity and pristine, healthy coral. Lankayan is a paradise for macro photographers.

Labuan is itself not a very attractive dive destination. If by chance you were there – on a business trip for example – then a wreck dive is certainly well worth the effort.

The gateway to idyllic islands

Semporna is situated on a lovely bay with beautiful white sandy beaches surrounded by palm trees. From this town you can reach the paradise-like islands Mabul and Sipadan.
