Looking for somewhere special to go scuba diving during June? Then come to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah and join Borneo Dream for a diving trip to Pulau Tiga - otherwise known as 'Survivor Island'.
Most divers coming to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah will generally only be aware of diving trips to nearby Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park. However, via a 60 minute fast boat transfer on our RIB, you can be diving the beautiful coral reefs near Pulau Tiga.
Pulau Tiga is a group of small islands located approx. 30nm southwest of Kota Kinabalu. Pulau Tiga is also located in a Marine Park - Pulau Tiga National Park. This is good news for scuba divers looking to dive pretty, living coral reefs.
Borneo Dream has found 9 relatively unexplored beautiful coral reef dive sites around the Island. The dive depths are between 6m - 25m, the visibility is generally 5m to 25m with occasional strong currents on certain dive sites. This makes Pulau Tiga a great destination for drift diving, underwater photography and any diver wanting to dive somewhere a bit special.
During a scuba diving trip to Pulau Tiga you will dive by large coral covered pinnacles, coral bombies and busy cleaning stations. The hard and soft corals are breath taking, including cascades of large colourful barrel sponges, Whip Coral gardens, Black Coral, Gorgonian fans and more. The fish life is plentiful and you'll often be surrounded by darting Fusliers, schooling Barracuda, Yellow Snappers and Damsel Fish. You'll also come across Rays, Cuttle Fish, Nudibranches and lots more.
