Overview

  • Bucket-list diving without another group in sight in Borneo's newest frontier
  • Overwater accommodations to suit a variety of budgets and travel styles
  • A wide variety of sites featuring muck and macro, powerful open ocean currents, marine megafauna, and more
  • Outstanding facilities for divers with expert local guides and high international standards for safety and fun

Located on the island of Derawan, off Kalimantan’s central coast, Scuba Junkie Sangalaki is perfectly positioned for exploring one of Southeast Asia’s most exciting and upcoming dive destinations. This lesser-known region boasts incredible sites of all kinds, with majestic manta rays and turtles at Sangalaki, muck diving and whale sharks at Derawan, and ripping currents packed with pelagics at Maratua. Plus, it’s still well off the tourist trail, so you’ll hardly see another dive group. Scuba Junkie’s facilities are ideal for intrepid guests hoping to make the most of their time in the water or social, outgoing travellers who enjoy laid back local lodging.
