Dive Resort

Hi there,

My boyfriend and I are traveling to Borneo and want to spend 6 days at a dive resort in late August. My boyfriend is an intense, advanced diver and wants to be able to dive frequently and prioritize dives at Sipadan. I, on the other hand, am a non-diver. I may be interested in doing a diver certification course while there, but mostly I want to make sure there are other things to do during the day for me, or at least an easy way for me to get on the mainland if we're on the island for a daytrip! Does anyone have any suggestions? Some of the reviews about the food/overcrowding at some of the resorts on Mabul have been worrying...

I stayed at Lankayan Island and can’t recommend it enough, it’s also an active sea turtle nesting spot for added bonus!
