I took the opportunity, as always, to try and capture some of the day in glorious techni-colour, which isn't too difficult to do in this part of the world. The boat is moored up in the Sutera Harbour and from there we made our way out beyond the TARP (Tunku Abdul Rahman Park), to a buoy about 11km offshore. This was going to be the first dive but the current was a raging 1.8 knots, and seeing as I am a novice boat driver, we decided to skip it this time and headed for the back end of Sapi Island, where they had a lovely dive, and due to the left to right swell, I was a little green!
Lunch and a dip in the sea at Sulug (where there were a couple of nude Germans thinking they were alone!), before heading off for second dive somewhere off the back of Mamutik.
On the way back, I had some boat driving, and diver pick-up lessons using a marker buoy which I really enjoyed and look forward to lesson 2.
Back to the Harbour to pack, load up and wash the boat down after a lovely day at sea.
Over the coming months I will try and do little posts about as many places in Sabah, Borneo as I can so watch this space.
