Fabian recently joined Borneo Dream for a scuba diving trip to Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park (TARP) during his trip to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. Mann, his friend also joined him on our boat for some snorkeling. Read his feedback below – tempted to come diving with us, then just contact the Dream Team :-)

“I just wanna say thanks to the excellent Dream Team on my trip last Saturday. Everybody was warm, welcoming and extra helpful in everything. I have this believe that in every dive, in every outing or a trip – there are bound to be new things to discover and learn. This one excursion had been memorable.

Richard was a fabulous Divemaster – I was actually very blessed and thankful to be paired with him. Richard helped and guided me in almost all aspects – from telling me that I had my wetsuit being worn in reverse, searching for things to see underwater and of course – tending to my crazy antics underwater. The check out dive was quick – I surprised myself that after a few minutes I was off checking the waters near the Sapi House reef, so thank you for the confidence. Richard was with me and never far off even when I wandered out of sight, busy with the camera, snapping away at everything. Nice job. Read the rest of this entry »

Scuba Diving Trips And Dive Courses – What’s Happening with Borneo Dream in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah . . . .

Well we’ve got a busy couple of weeks ahead of us with Chinese New Year celebrations just around the corner. We are running a range of trips and courses from snorkeling, learning to dive with the PADI Open Water Diver course, leisure diving to wreck diving later this month.

The weather is beautiful at the moment – blue skies, sunshine, gentle breezes and a steady 32C air temperature. Tropical bliss! It makes surface intervals on Borneo Dream3, our catamaran, very pleasant and the sun deck on the boat is very popular :-) The sea temperature is a slightly cooler 27 – 28C due to the North East trade winds bringing with them cooler currents.

The plankton blooms started last week – as part of the whale shark migration down the South China Sea – so visibility has been impacted on some of our dive sites we go to. Fortunately we go to > 20 dive sites in our local Marine Park, Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park, and have been working extra hard to take our customers to the nicest dive spots on the day. Sulug Reefs & Edgell Patches have been very nice. Read the rest of this entry »

來沙巴學潛水 正是時候!

January 27th, 2010 coffeemacher

成功啦

海底的世界又多了兩名愛上潛水的成員: 來自上海的Vincent和Kirk, 在Borneo Dream專任中文教練Silvia的帶領下, 順利完成了PADI開放水域潛水員的課程! 恭喜啦!

一開始Kirk只是抱著陪朋友Vincent上課的心情參加這個課程, 沒想到他入水後就像一條魚自在又快樂, 他立刻愛上了潛水 及在水中那無重力的自由感覺!

Vincent 自認是需要花比較多時間學新東西的人, 在第一天的課程中他花了一些時間在教練指導下克服了耳壓不平衡及面鏡進水的種種不適, 到第三天結業的時候他已經能完美地控制中性浮力, 輕鬆地完成所有課程要求!

除此之外, 他們跟Borneo Dream全部的員工變成了好朋友! 目前已經回到上海的他們, 除了熱心鼓吹朋友出國跟Borneo Dream學潛水外, 同時已經在計畫下一次到沙巴潛水的行程了– 這次該上進階水域的課程囉!
