10 Best Places to Go Scuba Diving in 2025
"Arguably one of the world's top five dive sites, Sipadan in Malaysia teems with life—turtles, cave systems, sharks, dolphins, schools of fish, bright coral and colorful fish in incredible abundance—and it was my favorite place in Southeast Asia. There are a limited number of dive permits each day so you need to book in advance; most divers take multi-day packages, with a typical three-day tour costing around $500 USD." - Matthew Kepnes
