    StandoutRich in charismatic marine life

    Dunlop Corner is often your go-to on a drift dive along Sipadan's east side. The wall here is absolutely packed with fusiliers, sometimes so dense they form solid curtains. Keep an eye out for resident turtles tucked into ledges and white-tip reef sharks cruising the deeper water. It's a great spot for any diver to just relax and watch the spectacle unfold.
