Your Day Dive to Miri, Borneo Coral Reefs
Diving in the waters of Miri, located in northern Sarawak on the island of Borneo, feels like stepping into a vibrant underwater world teeming with life - perfect if you’re booking a Water-Based or nature-focused activity. You’ll find over 40 dive sites a short boat ride from shore, with healthy soft and hard coral gardens, colorful sea fans, table corals and sponges creating a kaleidoscope of colors that make for unforgettable wide-angle reef scenes. Marine encounters are a highlight here: expect reef fish such as angelfish, butterflyfish and parrotfish, and the chance to see schools of barracuda, groupers or turtles cruising by as you explore. With calm conditions and good visibility most of the year, these dives suit all levels, from beginners to seasoned divers, and offer both macro critter hunting and broad reef panoramas to match your interests and help you plan your stay around the experience you want to book through Varoom.
