Kapalai Island Overview
Located at just about 15km from Sipadan Island, Kapalai Beach is known as one of the best scuba diving destinations in the world. There is only one resort here. The rest of the beach is not inhabited at all. Today, much of the beach has eroded off and only a few sand bars are remaining.

Located on the Ligitan Reef, Kapalai Island excellent diving spots in Mid Reef and The Jetty. Do try out the house reef dives at this island.

Location – A couple of hours away from Borneo Island and is connected to the more famous Kota Kinabalu by daily flights.

Timings – April to September.

Price – Varies as per diving course.
