Sipadan Water Village sits on what is known as the Ligitan Reefs, a very extensive stretch bordering the Sulawesi Sea. It is dubbed a "Water Village" because it is built entirely on pilings, connected to the island of Mabul by a long pier.

Mabul is a small island, surrounded by sandy beaches, and notably known as one of the world’s best "muck-diving" sites. The reef is on the edge of a continental shelf, and the seabed surrounding the reef slopes out to 75 to 100 feet deep.click here to learn more about Borneo!

We go every October because it is the best time of the year to dive one of the best destinations on earth. You know, we’ve been a lot of places, and there are several we favor. But usually we have to travel a long, long way to get there. And those trips are expensive. Only the Sea of Cortez offers an amazing dive adventure so close to home. Big animals. Big schools.. click here to learn more about La Paz
