Hi,
anyone can advise whether is it ok to go to sipadan for snokerling only?
I will be going to Sipadan next year in mid february for 3 days.
I have surveyed some of the diving vs non diving(snokerling only) packages and found out that the price different is quite big.
So i am wondering is it ok to go there for snokerling only?
Any recomendations from you guys about snokerling in Sipadan?
Thanks

Hye Asern,

You may go for snorkeling to Sipadan island but not really enjoy unless u go as a diver . The current quite strong and you can only go near to the buoy as a few metre after is wall drop . Sipadan is a small island . I've been there with my family and my mother the only snorkeler and she the only one who snorkel at Sipadan at that point of time . For me if I go as a snorkeler not much enjoy but u may try smile.gif

p/s : I will be going again this coming 25-29 Dec and stay @ Billabong Scuba icon_rolleyes.gif

Hmm.. from the quotation that i get its almost half price cheaper if go snorkeling only.
Thanks for your feedback fezanim.
Let me put it this way, is snorkeling in sipadan as nice as snokerling at redang/p.perhentian?

Surely Sipadan as been said by my mother .. u may snorkel near the jetty to hold to the buoy but pls wear life jacket as current quite strong . u will not able to see turtle at redang / perhentian as sipadan have plenty of it . hehe .

If budget is not a concern to you, i think snorkeling in Sipadan is nicer than redang.
I heard the snorkellers saying that they saw lion fish, turtles, and even a small shark.
Anyway, i think snorkeling in Sipadan would be quite a different or special experience, u can try.
