About this site
Bay Watch sits near the Semporna peninsula on Malaysian Borneo, close to the boundary with Kalimantan Timur, in the waters of the Coral Triangle along the Sulawesi Sea. It is a muck dive, the kind of site where divers work sandy or silty bottoms looking for smaller, well-camouflaged subjects rather than big reef structure. It is rated an advanced dive, and the small coastal operations working out of towns and islands in this part of Sabah run trips out to it.
