LAYANG LAYANG ATOLL - SABAH

 

LAYANG LAYANG ISLAND

EAST MALAYSIA

 

 

 

Another diver's favorite, the Layang Layang Atoll, is located 165 miles northwest of Kota Kinabalu. The Layang-layang Island is an incredible oceanic atoll and also a well known tourist attraction in Sabah. Oval-shaped and blessed with clear blue waters, you can also windsurf, sail a catamaran, dive, snorkel, fish to your heart's content, then climb back on land and watch the thousands of migratory birds nesting there in this nature lover's paradise. Most visitors come here mainly to scuba dive and admire its rare water wildlife.

 

This great attraction is all round its rim with the sea-bed dropping two thousand meters and a visibility average of over fifty meters. Whether you are here for swimming or scuba diving, the view here is simply marvelous and the waters are calmer during the months of February until September.
