Old equipment and unsafe procedures:
first of all: diving at Sipadan is really great ! The problem: you are obliged to dive with people like Sipadan Scuba in Sempora.
There are several negative issues.
- They force to buy a package. You have to dive at other sites before you go to Sipadan.
- The equipment is worn off and old. In my case, my BCD was leaking constantly and during my Sipadan dive, I had a problem with my regulator and my dive was interupted to exchange the device !!
- They ask you to wear the life wests in the area close to the Semporna Habour, so that the company does not get fined when seen by the police. On the trip to Sipadan, were the wave sometimes get higher, they recommend you to take it off and use it as a seat coushion !! This enables the skipper to speed more...
Another hint: If you plan to go here, don’t book the taxi from / to the airport with them. They charge you double the normal taxi price !
My overall impression is that the owner tries to make a maximum of money out of the tourists. Furthermore, they try to confuse people: the place of the hotel is called Semporna Beachfront. However, there is no beach at all. Semporna is a very dirty and ugly town. They make a lot of money by dive tourists. I don’t understand why all the hotels and dive shops don’t team up in order to clean up the area around the habour and “beach” area.
Judge at your own criteria if you want to make business with people like this…
