We have been to this dive center and we have to say it deserved well the rating.We dont talk about the idves and the islands which are amazing and really can be rewarded as the top 5 spot in the world. Regarding Jerry (the boss) and his team, ironically we could test the safety side because my son got a severe accident underwater which led him directly in the chamber for 5 times. He was saved because: - despite the remote area of the island the speed boat was really fast to go back to the land. So an engine failure could be catastrophic for my son. - oxygen for underwater AND outdoor was available on the boat - the dive master followed strictly the rules of decompression underwater despite my son was unconscious but breathing - the decompression chamber from the navy is at 30mn from the dive center - strong network connexion (doctors and underwater specialists) of Jerry contributed to decide the appropriate treatment in the chamber (different tables can be applied). On top of that Jerry and his team have been extremely nice and supportive during this bad story. So in summary this is what we call highly professional. SipadanScuba is there for many years and many of the competitors around there have been working with this dive center. This is probably the reason why you are "almost" sure to go to Sipadan Island (a must) when you dive with them because they have more chance to get the required number of licences which is not the case for the competitors. The organization is very good and despite the number of people during high season they do what they claim : we are always in small groups of not more than 4 to 5 people. And for the courses we have seen 2 students per instructors. So we strongly recommend this dive center. User reviews
