The Highlight
Mataking Island is the ideal getaway for both the diver and non-diver surrounded by stunning turquoise waters. It is located just 45-55 minutes boat ride from Semporna.
Timba Timba Island is covered with soft, pure white sand, also known for the wonderful beach great to look for rare marine life.
The Experience
Mataking Island has many diving sites that attract both professional and amateur divers each year. While most of all are perfectly suitable for beginners, some (such as North Point) should only be visited by experienced divers. Large Green Turtles that are thought to be the biggest in the area are quite common. Divers can gear up and explore the Eel Garden, Coral Garden, Nudibranch Garden, Turtle Playground, Lobsters Lair and Hump Head Point. If you’re into stingrays and giant moray eels don’t miss out on regular sightings of these marine wonders at the Shipwreck site.
An equally exhilarating scuba dive can be found off Timba -Timba at the Sting Ray City dive site. Aptly named, this site never fails the scuba diver to find the shy and beautiful Blue-spot stingrays resting under the coral beds and rock formations.
