Malaysia :: Sipadan : Turtle Patch

A typical Sipadan dive with an abundance of turtles, its not unusual to see over 20 of them in one dive. Topography is slightly different here with a slope down to 15 meters then slightly steeper down to 40 or so before the drop off. Turtles aside there are often huge schools of circling jacks here where divers can be engulfed in a living sphere of fish. As with most Sipadan dives this one is best done as a drift.
