Among diver, Sipadan and Mabul though is favorite destination in the world, but not many people heard about diving in Sabah. That is why Tourism Malaysia and Sabah Tourism Board in collaboration with Borneo Divers lately heavily promoting Unexpressed 101 sites in Sabah, which proved to have many new dive sites that have not teresksplor in the Celebes Sea. On a recent visit to Sabah, I explore the coral reef in Semporna. Although I have a short time and can not be tasted all existing sites, but what I see when it is astounding.
I was introduced to the largest marine park in Sabah named Sakaran National Park is located not far from mainland Semporna. Covering an area of 350 square kilometers, this area is the largest concentration of coral reefs in Malaysia. Also known as Semporna Islands Park, the park consists of eight islands, namely Bohey Dulang, Bodgaya, Tetagan, Sebangkat, Selakan, Maiga, Sibuan and Mantabuan. Some islands are uninhabited, while the rest is sometimes inhabited by tribes that settled Bajo. National Park under the management of Sabah, from blast fishing is prohibited, the public educated about ways to catch fish that are environmentally friendly and that's just the way they are allowed to fish in these waters.
Although the program is still new, I am sure with time and the sharp eye of an experienced dive guide, then a variety of dive sites in Sabah will be more popular, and it is not possible new sites will be as famous as Mabul and Kapalai. Cluster of coral reefs surrounding the islands is not only widespread, but also the diversity of marine life amazing. Call it the reef fish, hard and soft corals, gorgonians, mollusks, enchinoderm, and anemone.
