Excellent experience as previous! I really like this rig not only bcz this is the only one and unique dive rig in the world but the perfect service. Thank you for every staff! Especially thanks to Remash, he is really care about how our feeling at the rig everyday and always do his best to make every guest feel good;thanks to our guide Zul, he is so full of passionate and energy, and bring us a amazing diving even he is sick, he is funny also! Besides, thanks to him that teach us how to choose our own equipment and give us advice, he is really professional DM! This is not my first time to go there and am pretty sure this time is not the last time I was there. 和以前一样出色的体验!我真的很喜欢这个钻机,不仅因为它是世界上唯一独特的潜水钻机,而且是完美的服务。感谢每一位员工!特别感谢Remash,他真的很关心我们每天在钻机上的感受,并总是尽最大努力让每位客人感觉良好;感谢我们的导游Zul,他充满了激情和活力,即使他生病了,也给我们带来了令人惊叹的潜水,他也很有趣!此外,多亏了他教我们如何选择自己的设备并给我们建议,他真的是专业的DM! 这不是我第一次去那里,我很确定这次不是我最后一次去那里。

Highly Recommended. The dive rig is cool, and the all the dive sites were amazing! Every staff member and management were professional. I did a video with so so so much sea life... check it out YouTube @ricanborn1963 or search Seaventure dive rig. I will be coming again to visit the the lots of nudibranches-ghost pipefish, crocodile-shark, not to forget, Humphead Parrotfish, schools of barracuda and jackfish and hopefully a better interaction with sharks. BTW all the sealife were captured during my stay. Thank you Seaventures!

It’s was a unique experience to stay on the rig. The staff gave us a warm welcome upon our arrival. The room and toilet are clean, just one thing to mention is the pillows are a bit smelly, hope this can be improved. Diving experience is good, the DM are professional and friendly. Dropped my fin while waiting the boat and the DM just dive in to get my fin back, much appreciated. Overall we are satisfied, and will definitely recommend the others to come here.

First time visiting seaventures with a dive group, and enjoyed every bit of it. Food : Great mix of Asian and western cuisine 3 times daily. Plenty of free desserts, and drinks. Do note there is a corkage fee for alcohol brought on board. Beer sold at the bar is reasonably priced, so feel free to get it on the rig itself. Accommodations: Room was adequately spacious for 2 people , with free towels provided daily on request. Hot water was running properly and pressure was good. Air conditioning was strong and noise isolation was good considering that a generator was powering the rig the entire time. Amenities: Recliners are abundant throughout the ship for enjoyment of sunshine. There is a games room with boars games, a billiard table and a ping pong table. There is also a room for streaming services. All equipped with strong air conditioners. A sunroof graces the top deck with recliners and hammocks. Diving: Spectacular in terms of service. I have never visited a dive resort so focused on ensuring guests get the most out of their dive trips on the ship. The dive masters actively monitored weather conditions and adapt the planned guided dives to ensure divers get to enjoy the most wildlife, currents and visibility at each dive interval. We arrived during a pretty wet season, so visibility and currents weren't always the best, but those were out of human control. Shout-out especially to Kiddo, our dive master for the entire trip who made sure our needs, both diving or otherwise, were regularly attended to. Diving locations: - Sipadan Island. Located about 30 mins by speedboat away from the rig. (Up to 1.5 hours if sea conditions are bad) Seasick pills are recommended if you are prone to falling ill. Great wildlife and corals. Barracudas, parrotfish and turtles were our star attractions during our stay. We did not get to dive the more popular sites due to weather conditions, but the ones we went to (Drop off and Barracuda point) were great nonetheless Depending on your purchase package, you will be entitled to several Sipadan Island dives. Take note of the conservation fee for every dive which will be extra on top of the package. Additional dives can be arranged during your stay, but are pretty expensive. (650RM) - Mabul and Kapalai islands These are located closer to the rig and will be the default diving locations once your Sipadan dives are completed. Not as diverse as Sipadan, but the wildlife, corals and wrecks are still worthy experiences on their own. - House reef This is made up of the artificial reefs around the dive rig. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of wildlife present here, especially in the evenings and nights. Turtles and octopus were abundant during our night dive. You are entitled to unlimited amounts of unguided dives here, as long as you have a buddy to go with and the dive ends before 730pm. (Sun sets around 6pm here, so night dives are recommended and easy to go for) Admin team: I must also call out the

What can I possibly say about this place that hasn't been said already and repeatedly? Seaventures Dive Rig is truly a bucket-list experience for any diving enthusiast. The uniqueness of staying on a converted oil rig, floating above the vibrant waters of the Celebes Sea, is something you have to experience to believe. The dive sites around the rig are among the best in the world, and the incredible crew ensures that every aspect of your stay is unforgettable. The divemasters are outstanding—extremely knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about what they do. They guide you through stunning underwater adventures and they are great at spotting the stunning oceanic macros. I did my AOW here and their expertise made me feel safe and well taken care of. One of the best perks? Unlimited house reef dives! You can descend directly from the rig’s elevator platform into the crystal-clear water which is teeming with vibrant marine life. On top of that, the food on the rig is delicious! Every meal is prepared with care, offering a variety of choices to satisfy any craving. But the true gem is the all-you-can-eat dessert fridge! Open at any time of the day, it's the perfect sweet treat after a day of diving. If you're looking for a truly one-of-a-kind diving experience, Seaventures Dive Rig should be at the top of your list. It's more than just a diving destination—it's an adventure you’ll cherish forever! I can't wait to be back here already <3

It's the little things here that are just done well that make this place great. The diving is cool and there is a variety of dive sites available depending on weather and currents. The staff are amazingly friendly! The food is great and you never go hungry. After the first night I knew I wanted to extend my stay. I've never been on a strictly diving holiday, but after this experience I am already looking to book another

As a solo traveler I had a very special experience at Seadventure Dive Rig! The crew is very warm, friendly and professional: they care about your safety so much, they know the ocean very well and they are always ready to help. I had my advanced open water training and I can confirm that the dive masters are very clear when they explain and encourage your confidence as a diver! The position is great because it's close to the main dive spots, but far enough from Mabul, which currently is not in great conditions. In addiction, the underwater part of the structure is very suitable for quick dives and night dives as it's easily accessible and gives home to a very rich marine life. After spending 5 days on the rig with its amazing crew, I had an hard time to leave! I definitely would reccomend it to anyone who wants to have an unique dive experience

Truly a gem. One of a kind dive rig, great location—right next to the Mabul and few minutes boat ride away from Kapalai. The proximity to these sites makes the rig perfect for quick surface intervals, and the unlimited house reef dives beneath the rig are an added bonus! I have every good thing to say about their hospitality—the food there is delicious, we were well fed in between dives. Ramesh and the crew are incredibly helpful, friendly, and accommodating, ensuring that every aspect of our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The sunset views from the sundeck were stunning, just the perfect way to end the day of diving. Each dive, whether at Sipadan, Mabul, or Kapalai, was an adventure filled with amazing marine life. The dive masters worked really hard to point out sea life, they made each dive special. A special shoutout to the super handsome dive masters Lorence, Zul, Wan, and Tark—you guys made our experience truly unforgettable! Thank you for your hard work and for making every moment of our trip so memorable. First time at Seaventures, definitely won’t be my last!

Unforgettable experience! Facilities are great. Nice stuff and dive guides. Foods are beyond expectation. Saw some of the best sunset on the sun deck. House reef is good, should’ve dived couple of more times there. I sure will come back for my next sipadan trip.
