More about Mabul Beach Resort

Run by Scuba Junkie, Mabul Beach Resort sits on a sandy beachfront a few minutes' boat ride from Pulau Sipadan. Its 30 en-suite rooms trade luxury for value and put the money where divers want it: in the water. Sustainability here is practical rather than decorative — reef-safe sunscreen is required of every guest, and the resort's turtle programme protects nests on its own beach and releases the hatchlings.

Evenings sort themselves out. Trade the day's stories in the panoramic upstairs bar, or take a cold drink to the jetty bar for a front-row sunset. Some nights, turtles haul out to nest along the shore below.

The in-house dive centre is Scuba Junkie's award-winning PADI 5* operation — up to 100 divers a day, courses from Open Water to Instructor, 3 boat dives daily including 3 dives at Sipadan on your permit day. The full training and conservation story is on the Scuba Junkie page. With around 45 dive sites across Sipadan, Mabul and Kapalai, 13 of them at Sipadan — and more again at Pulau Si Amil and across the wider Semporna archipelago — you'll find everything from macro critter hunts to pelagics and coral gardens.

Book early — especially in peak season — to secure your Sipadan permits, preferred room type and dates.
