ty live to travel ty live to travel saturday 15 october 2011 diving in sipadan toooo amazing part 1 day 55 56 57 and 58 the ultimate diving experience oct 7 8 9 and 10 if there was one thing i could change on my trip i would have spent more time here diving my time here was so much fun so amazing so surreal after my arrival at tawau airport i had a transfer to semphorna where many people to go diving in order to be able to dive at sipadan island i had to stay at mabul island but it was amazing anyway i stayed at the dive shop accomodations that turned out to be really nice with two beds ac and a very new washroom when i arrived at mabul island that morning i didnt realize but i was to immediately do my first dive unfortunately for me it was reeeaaaaaly rough waters that day and i got horribly sea sick because of this i was only able to do two dives instead of four that day but still awesome nonetheless saw my first turtle underwater my god it was beautiful visibility was not great but we saw some amazing stuff mabul is known for is macro diving ie looking at really little little fish see that tiny yellow fishy its smaller than the size of my thumb sooooo cool colours dont turn out as well on the camera they look so much more vivid and beautiful in person but for you to see that guess you have to go diving this is my new friend anil we arrived to semphorna on the same day and had the same dive schedule for three days his passion for travel and life makes mine look like nothing this was my dive group on the first day super fun people who i hope to see again in another body of water one day after being sick for the first day i was recharged and ready to go to sipadan island for those who don t know sipadan was once a resort island until the government declared it a marine park and all resorts were kicked off only 120 divers are allowed each day and you have to pay for a permit to dive the island has a lot of sea life because of where it is situated the island sits right on the equator and sits on top of an old underwater mountain one side of the island drops down 600m and on the other side it goes down to 2000m another thing about this island is that it is known for its abundance of turtles around many turtles head to the island to lay their eggs there is a turtle hatchery there but it is closed off from the public what brings so much sealife here is the cold current which brings in a lot of nutrients when nutrients are brought in lots of small fish come around lots of small fish means lots of mid sized fish which then means tons of large fish this was my favourite fish i saw the clown trigger fish reminds me of a penguin but of course the coolest thing i saw were the turtles no matter how many i saw i still get sooo excited when i see one this one in particular came around when we were surfacing if i hadn t turned around i think it would have swam right next to my head they are such gentle and beautiful creratures one of my favourite experiences diving was swimming with these jackfish thousands of them swimming in a school if you swim in the middle of them they just surround you pictures dont do it justice though i cant even describe how incredible this experience was freaking awesome at baracuda point its famous for seeing the school of jackfish i mentioned above and a school of baracuda you cant swim in the middle of them though they have sharp teeth s i only managed to take one pic of them because i was taken away by the current sooo beautiful this area is also very well known for the sharks this one in paticular is callec the white tip reef shark they stay very still at the bottom no they do not eat humans they are quite shy actually and if you get too close they run away over the course of two days i probably saw 70 sharks there are tonnnnns here little shrimps in this pic so cute this one here is called the bump head parrotfish they are absolutely massive i wish i could show the relative size here but this one was probably about a metre long it was sooo huge also saw a lot of anemonies cant spell which were home to many clown fish these aree super weird fish though there are a max of seven fish in each anomenie and they are regualted by size ie no two can be the same size if one grows bigger adn there is no space for them to move up in the hierarchy they are kicked out if one dies or gets eaten the next smaller one grows to the appropriate size and moves up the chain the largest one is the female and the rest are male who mate with her if the female dies the one directly below it in sizes grkws arger and changes sex to female insane i havent confirmed this on wiki but ill believe what the dive master told me he seemed very knowledgeable with tens of years of diving experience at this dive shop they provide quality equipment and short sleeved wet suits you d be surprised how cold it got there because of the thermocline one minute you are in 28 degree water the next it drops 10 degrees with cold current this turtle is a hawksbill turtle note the shape of its head compared to my previous pics the turtles with the rounder heads here are green turtles this set up was really funny behind the turlte is a batfish and they follow turtles around because they eat their poo shark crap i forgot what this fish was called it was massive though maybe around 75cm when the sun shined on them it was florescent they were awesome this funny dude here is called a unicorn fish the name is pretty self explanatory i cant remember but i think these fish below were a type of angel fish this was pretty close to the surface colours are much brighter and vivid up here sooooooo many fish i was told this is a great baracuda they like to swim on their own as opposed to in a school like the other baracuda i saw earlier in the day more turtle the coral was gorgeous i am so sad that my photos really dont do them justice no matter how i changed the settings on the camera i could not make it show the colours i saw this was the island on the first day i was at sipadan super cloudy but beautiful nonetheless diving was spectacular location mabul island sipadan island malaysia posted
