A Family Experience – PADI Open Water Diver Course with Borneo Dream in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah

Congratulations to the Bound Family on becoming certified PADI Open Water Divers during their holiday in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah!

Andrew and his wife Lori had previously learned to dive over 10 years a go but hadn’t dived since. They decided it would be nice if they learned to dive as a family so Andrew, Lori and their two sons (Nathan and Aidan) all signed up for the PADI Open Water course with Borneo Dream.

All of them wanted to complete the required pre-study before they came on holiday to Kota Kinabalu – meaning they could enjoy just getting wet and scuba diving during the three days of the PADI OW course. Andrew and Lori completed PADI eLearning. Aidan and Nathan were too young to sign up for PADI eLearning so we posted their manuals to them in Singapore and they read them in advance.

Day 1 of their PADI Open Water course arrived and the boys took to diving like fish! They were amazed by everything they saw underwater – Table Coral, Anemone Fish, Damsel Fish, Barrel Sponges and lots more. During Day 2 and Day 3 of their course and the family just kept enjoying each dive they did together. Read the rest of this entry »

Ever thought of learning to dive on a remote, beautiful, tropical island? Well, for participants of Camps International (CI) in Sabah, Borneo this is a reality.

During the PADI Open Water course both the confined water sessions and open water dives are all held at Pulau Mantanani using a combination of shore dives and boat dives.

PADI Open Water Diver Course – Learn to Dive with Borneo Dream in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah

Congratulations to Gareth Reece who has just become a certified PADI Open Water Diver with Borneo Dream. Welcome to the wonderful underwater world!

Gareth was on holiday in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah with his girlfriend Alice. Alice is a certified BSAC Sports Diver so Gareth decided it was about time he learned to dive so they could dive together.

Gareth completed his PADI Open Water Diver course in Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park which is home to > 20 dive sites and easy diving along shallow pretty coral reefs. Gareth took to diving like a fish and during his ocean dives saw Turtles, Eagle Rays (3 on one dive!), Ghost Pipefish, Nudibranches, Barracuda and lots more. What an introduction to scuba diving!

Enjoying the dive :)

Alice decided to enjoy three days of leisure diving whilst Gareth learned to dive. She joined our Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park 3 dive trip which meant they were both on the same boat – our catamaran Borneo Dream 3 – and dived some of the same dive sites together. We wish them many happy dives ahead as buddy’s :-)

If you want to lean to dive and complete the PADI Open Water Diver course with Borneo Dream during your holiday in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah then please contact the Dream Team. We look forward to getting you wet!
