Why dive here
With 142+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blue-spotted stingrays, eagle rays, sea turtles and sperm whales - Lankayan Island jetty offers some of Sipadan's richest reef diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest May, October, November.
Don't overlook the Lankayan Island jetty dive. It's an easy shore entry, perfect for checking out pygmy squid and the occasional blue-spotted stingray cruising the sand flats. We've seen cuttlefish here, too, along with schools of juvenile barracuda darting between the pilings. It’s a relaxed dive, great for macro enthusiasts or a chilled-out afternoon session after the boat dives.
