KK - Sipadan Trip [Jan 11th 08] {Sipadan Day 1}
Sipadan Day 1
Our initial plan which was to reach Semporna around 5.30, have a cup of coffee and directly heading towards the jetty but it was ruined because the very moment when we reached Semporna was around 3:30 am. Way too early!
*Having too much coffee while waiting for the bus to pick us up to the jetty.
* Don't ask me who is the guy facing away from the camera.
*It was an oil rig but now become a resort with 'house reef' just beneath it.
*Briefing by our Divemaster {Eve} regarding the sites and also the 'house reef'
*All geared up for the first dive -> 'house reef'
On the first day, we did 2 dives in 'house reef' and another one in Mabul. Below are some of the picture taken for the day.
*This pygmy seahorse is found in the 'house reef'. It had been zoom before the picture is taken.
*Tiny lobster which I have forgotten the name of it.
*Nudibranch !
*Turtle, which is common here.
*Time for safety stop for our second 'house reef' dive. All of us were hanging to the anchor line of the oil rig so we don't have to keep on kicking to stay within exit position.
