hi there,

When looking at scuba diving in Malaysia, the first of the things to do is to find a reputable dive company with experienced dive masters.

One of the best ways to do this is by talking to other travelers who have been diving in Malaysia and you'll likely meet many during your Malaysia tours.

Most dive centers are very well equipped with the gear and are certified and experienced instructors. It's possible to get PADI certified at affordable prices but be sure to do plenty of research before you choose a company.

Some of the best diving can be found around the islands of Sabah, the surrounding area of Langkawi Island and the Perenthian Islands.

On the east coast the islands of Sipadan, Layang Layang, Mabul and Lankayan are excellent for diving in Malaysia.

Hope this helps
