About this site
South Sulug lies off Sulug Island within Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park, off the coast of Kota Kinabalu in Sabah, Borneo. Sulug is the smallest and most remote of the park's islands, reached by boat from the mainland jetty, and this site sits along its fringing reef. It is rated a beginner dive, and divers have reported barracuda, snapper, and moon wrasse over the reef, along with reef fish such as clownfish, spine-cheek clownfish, ocellaris anemonefish, doublebar rabbitfish, eightband butterflyfish, greenblotch parrotfish, and scissortail sergeant. Black longspine urchin have also been noted among the reef structure, worth keeping an eye out for while moving over the bottom.
