Days 5 to 13 - Sipadan Water Village

Days 5 to 13 - Sipadan Water Village







Just finished a great stay there. Thanks to manager Alex Ho and the amazing staff. The diving was spectacular...from the small creatures of Mabul and Kapalai to the pelagics of Sipadan. And the reefs some of the healthiest on Earth.







New camera setup (Nikon D300 with SubAl) worked great. Bulletproof Austrian engineering as usual. Writing this from Kota Kinabalu, the capital of Sabah. Comfortable Shangri-La resort here (same as on the way to diving). The weather here has been hot and incredibly humid. The only downside to the resort was the lack of air conditioning. Difficulty sleeping due to the heat and unending jet lag.

Some HD video footage I took of the resort follows.

Posting a full spectrum of UW photos soon on picasa.
