BILLABONG SCUBA HOMESTAY

INTRODUCTION

      Billabong Scuba is a homestay that offering a different experience for low budget travelers, who are looking for cheap diving in Sipadan, and a more laid-back way to live and dive the islands Sipadan and Mabul/Kapalai.

All dive sites are easy accessible, giving us a very flexible dive schedule to suit customer needs, this is because the budget accommodation and dive shop was located on the island Mabul.

     Billabong Scuba's Homestay is a traditional Malay "tiang". A wooden-house, build on stilts in the water, giving a scenic and relaxed environment to enjoy the holiday. Just out the backdoor of the tiang, will find the atmospheric local village with all its picturesque houses and friendly villagers. It is the perfect opportunity to experience the wonders of real Malay island living.

      The concept of the homestay is to give people a different experience of Mabul Island, providing a cozy, relaxed atmosphere with a home-like environment. The homestay is daily managed by a friendly English-speaking Malay family with years of experience in western tourism. Every day they spend hours in the kitchen, cooking great traditional Malay meals and snacks, which never seem to fail the expectations from the food-loving guest! In the house, there are several rooms with comfortable double beds, a fan to keep cool at night and big windows allowing a breeze from the ocean to keep everything nice and chilled. There are shared toilets, where passenger can shower with a traditional "mandy" (a bucket of fresh water) or can use the outside shower whilst enjoying the view of the ocean.
