Welcome to this exciting dive resort located on a coral atoll along with a small Malaysian Naval base. But be careful, the naval base is strictly off limits and entering it will lead to detention. Explore this reclaimed island that has been expanded using concrete rubble, offering a unique landscape of concrete boulders instead of sandy beaches. Plus, there's even a sealed air strip on the island! Layang Layang is situated in the midst of deep waters, with a stunning drop off outside the island's reef that plunges to a staggering 2000 meters. As this heaven's home is located in the middle of nowhere, the ocean waters are crystal clear and unpolluted. Prepare to encounter mesmerizing deep-water marine species, such as the majestic Hammerhead sharks and the magnificent Whale Sharks that frequently visit this atoll. Dive into a world of pristine coral reefs, where fishing is prohibited, allowing the marine life to thrive abundantly. Note: The island's solitary resort is only open from March to August, offering an exclusive experience. November to February is known as "Monsoon Season" when the resort is closed for safety precautions.
