Sipadan Island is located on the north-eastern part of Borneo Island, Sipadan is one of the world's best dive spots. White sandy beaches borders this 12ha island. The island was formed from a undersea volcano and is raised 650meters from the sea floor. Sipadan is famous for its reef wall, rare reef creatures and the regular appearance of sea turtles. If you are a diver, this is one place that you would not want to miss.
In order to protect the area, the Malaysian government is disallowing overnight stays on the island. Picture below are of diver with a big crown of thorns...
