    Paradise Bay, off Mabul, offers a relaxed dive without much current. It's a muck diver’s playground, really, with critters like frogfish, ghost pipefish, and various nudibranchs hiding amongst the sand and occasional debris. We often recommend it for photographers looking for macro subjects or divers just wanting an easy, unhurried second dive.
