About this site
Coral Garden is one of several named dive sites around Sipadan Island, off the east coast of Sabah in Malaysian Borneo. Sipadan sits in the Celebes Sea and rises from a deep seamount, with its fringing sites reached by short boat rides from jetties on the Semporna peninsula or Mabul Island.
