PADI Discover Scuba Diving Experience, DSD & Try Dives in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia

Wilfred Tay and his family recently joined Borneo Dream for a PADI Discover Scuba Diving Experience as part of their family holiday in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. They had never dived before and Wilfred fancied treating his family to a special day out.

Their PADI DSD with Borneo Dream included a simple scuba diving education session, a confined water skills session and they enjoyed two (2) leisure dives.

They went scuba diving in Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park near Kota Kinabalu, Sabah and enjoyed seeing Nemo, two Turtles, being surrounded by Damsel Fish and Wrasses, Barracuda and lots more!!

At Borneo Dream we focus on safe, high quality and fun diving experiences. As part of this we have small ratios per PADI Instructor (they had three PADI Instructors looking after their family of six), they travelled on our highly equipped spacious catamaran (Borneo Dream 3), used nice functioning dive gear and had lots of fun!!
