Scuba Junkie Mabul Beach Resort is an eco-friendly resort located on Mabul Island, just a hop and a skip away from world-famous Sipadan National Park. With 30 en suite rooms situated on the beachfront, treat yourself to a little luxury at incredible prices. The resort is built with divers and snorkelers in mind, whilst making sure our resort and dive operation is as eco-friendly as possible. Our beautiful Mabul Beach Resort is the perfect base from which to explore Sipadan and the surrounding islands! This area is one of the best dive destinations in the world, and we look forward to diving with you soon.

The chemicals in most suncreams are very harmful to reefs and contribute significantly to coral bleaching. We therefore require all divers and snorkellers to only use Reef Safe suncreams during their stay to protect the reefs for generations to come.

the local area

Mabul is a small island on Sabah’s east coast. You can stroll around the whole island in under an hour. There are limited facilities here - in the village you will find some small stalls selling things as snacks and cigarettes, but there are no supermarkets on the island. These small shops are all cash only, please note there are no ATM’s or money exchange facilities on the island so it is best to bring some pocket money from Semporna. We have a small retail shop in our resort for souvenirs, toiletries and dive accessories, but if you are looking for something specific, it is better to buy on the mainland before reaching the island.

We do have Wi-Fi in the resort common areas, however the speed varies and can be affected by bad weather. There is phone-signal and 4G on the island - If you need reliable internet we recommend buying a sim card with credit in Semporna before heading to Mabul, as this can be difficult to purchase on the island. Celcom, Digi and Maxis are the 3 biggest providers.
