Frequently asked questions

How do I choose a dive centre in Kota Kinabalu?

Check that the centre is an SSI training centre, the instructor-to-student ratio, what is included in the price, the condition of rental equipment and how recently the listing was verified. Ask whether open-water dives take place locally or on a trip.

Do I need a certification to dive in Kota Kinabalu?

Not for an introductory try dive, which is run under direct instructor supervision. For independent recreational diving you need an entry-level certification such as SSI Open Water Diver, and some sites require more experience, such as SSI Advanced Adventurer.

When is the best time to dive in Kota Kinabalu?

Sabah can be dived year-round, though sea conditions vary through the year. Ask the centre about conditions for your dates.
