2020 Sipadan Water Village
EXPERIENCE SIPADAN WATER VILLAGE
2020 Sipadan Water Village - Critters Gone Wild Event!
Please join us for our 4th Critters Gone Wild event when we return to the amazing Sipadan Water Village in 2020!
There is no better place to learn about marine life and behavior than the Sipadan Water Village– a super rich environment for marine critters from frog fish to massive schools of fish and everything in between. Let the amazing Divemasters at the Sipadan Water Village teach you how to find, observe and understand marine behavior.
Critters Gone Wild is NOT a photo contest! It's a great learning experience that will enhance every dive you make. It's a chance to learn about Marine Behavior (how to recognize it; how to approach it; how to either capture it in your memory or on a digital chip!). Critters Gone Wild will offer seminars to help you learn about and understand the unique array of critters that you will see on your dives.
The event is one week - but, please feel free to come early or stay late and enjoy extra dive time.
If you have more time and want more adventure, ask about the optional extension to visit the Orangutan Sanctuary and a river lodge where you can see the endemic wildlife of Borneo - proboscis monkey, Pygmy elephants and more!
