60mins speedboat ride from Semporna jetty with Celebes Explorer dive center, departure at 07:30. Upon arrival, the boat pack on the shore, jump off the vessel then we had to sign in at the Island Registration, individually. 1st dive: Barracuda Point Wall/ drift dive Dive time: 60mins Marine life: white tips shark (resting) 2nd dive: South Point Slope/ drift dive Marine life: Cyclone School of Big Eye Trevally, Giant Green Turtles, White tip sharks (resting and circling) and Napoleon Wrasse. 3rd dive: Turtle Tomb/ Cave Wall/ drift dive Marine life: GREEN HUMPHEAD PARROTFISHS (40mins), Giant Green Turtle & Barracuda Fishes Highlight: 1) REMEMBER: you are there for scuba diving and nothing else. 2) divers must be experienced with drift and buoyancy control to avoid damaging sensitive to marine life. 3) no fresh water, basic toilet (many soiled & dirty cubicles, no washing material or drying material available on the island. 4) limited jetty access, you are lucky if your operator can dock on the very poor constructed wood bridge. 5) check with your operator best/ highest chance to see Green Humphead Parrot Fishes.
