I went there with my brother for a 6 days 5 nights stay including 2 days diving in Sipadan. The rig met our expectation as we were here to dive more than playing the tourists. I read a lot of bad reviews and it was fun how stupid and untrue they are. If ever you want to enjoy a 5... More

So, after reading through some of these, I feel I first have to address some of the "bad" reviews of Seaventures. Clearly these were people who were expecting Four Seasons quality accommodation. And to the guy who complained about rice being served with every meal? You. Are. In. Malaysia. What in the world did you expect?! OK, now that that's... More

We ended up extending our stay on the rig for another night, so we were there 4 nights/5 days and had a blast. We had been researching for the best dive company to go with, some were full and others didn't have great reviews. We really liked this idea because living off a rig for a few days is something...

Seaventures Dive Rig is a great place for Divers to stay. Its uniqueness as a converted oil rig is a huge selling point, with a 360 degree view of the ocean including a view of Mabul and Kapalai Island. Lodgings are clean with air condition. The rooms are cleaned and tidied every day. Don't expect anything fancy like food served... More

My wife and I arrived at Seaventures on April 9, on a 7 day/6 night package. From the start, we were greeted at Tawau airport by the friendly van driver, who took us to Semporna for a briefing, and then a one hour boat ride to the rig. All pickups were on schedule, and we were very well looked after... More

If you ask a scuba diver where the best place to dive in the world is, the majority of them will mention Sipadan, Malaysia, which is a tiny island off Borneo. A national park with pristine un-fished waters, Sipadan offers only 86 diver permits per day; a limited opportunity to play in nature’s best underground playground! It is an hour... More

Jacky is a perfect coach with responsibility and fun. I did have a very good vacation in Seaventures Rig. I reduced my weighting pieces for diving from 5 to 2. Everybody said it's incretible. I will go Seaventure Rig again for learning more skill from Coach Jacky and have fun with him. Maybe I will go there with my friend... More

Just back from a 4 night stay at Seaventures and I have to say I loved it - perfect for Sipadan (great ratio for permits - they were the only accomodation who would guarantee 1 permit for a 4 night stay and in the end I managed to get 3 days in a row, I felt really, really lucky!). The... More

Just back from too short a holiday at Sea Adventures. 6 days on the rig just was not sufficient! The staff are extremely accommodating and friendly and bend over backwards to make you feel at home both in and out of the water. The house reef dive site is surprisingly good and we saw our first Mantis Shrimp there-its been... More
