Stunning corals at Pulau Tiga

Pulau Tiga Dive Trip, Scuba Diving with Borneo Dream from Kota Kinabalu, Sabah

Borneo Dream ran a scuba diving trip to Pulau Tiga this weekend. One of our favourite scuba diving destinations from Kota KInabalu, Sabah.

Pulau Tiga is located approximately 31nm (nautical miles) South West from Kota Kinabalu. After a relaxing cruise on Borneo Dream 3 we arrived at our first dive site, the Pinnacle, and performed an an environmental check.

Cuttle Fish

Current and visibility were favourable and our shot line (or ‘Bessie’) was dropped at the best entry point for this dive site.

We started our first dive around 9:30am. As ever there was plenty of fish life and the corals were amazing. We dived around the coral pinnacles and were in awe at the colour and variety of soft corals, hard corals and sponges. We found a friendly Cuttle Fish during the dive who posed for several photos.

Coral Pinnacles at Tiga

After a chilled out surface interval we started our second dive at Barracuda Point. Again the current was very slight and vis was similar to the first dive. We entered the water amid a large shoal of Yellow Snapper. We spotted a few underwater delights during this dive – Porcelain Crabs, Nudibranches, Hawksbill Turtle, Anemone Fish and more.

We surfaced with smiles all round – another great day of diving at Pulau Tiga! Enjoy some photos taken during this diving trip.
