Why dive here
With 119+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue-spotted stingrays, giant moray eels, grey reef sharks, pygmy seahorses and sea turtles - Hanging Gardens offers some of Mabul & Kapalai's richest reef diving.
Hanging Gardens gives you a lovely drift along a sloping coral reef in Mabul. It’s pretty shallow, making it a relaxed spot for newer divers or those who prefer longer bottom times. You'll often see turtles cruising past, along with plenty of reef fish sheltering in the hard corals. It’s a good easy dive to unwind on, especially after a more challenging outing.
