Pulau Tiga Dive Trip, Scuba Diving, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Borneo, Malaysia

Borneo Dream ran a scuba diving trip to Pulau Tiga from Kota Kinabalu, Sabah this week. On board our spacious catamaran (Borneo Dream 3) were Bernard and his wife (in KK on their Honeymoon), Chris (diving on his rebreather), Christopher, John and Michael, as well as the Borneo Dream Crew. We were all ready for a day of great diving!
