Sipadan Dreams



A crocodile fish half-buried in the muck in the depths beneath the oil rig at Sipadan.

You find these horrors in other spots in the area. And as usual, I needed my tectile experience. So I stroked the monster with my fingers. Scaly and rough. Urgh.






A white-eyed eel darting out of hiding. Quite a beauty. So much beauty beneath the murky oil rig.
















Herd of huge bumphead fish gliding past in the blue deep off Barrucuda Point.

















Close up of a bumphead. Notice the bugs bunny teeth. Real clowns.



















Patted the head of this handsome turtle resting on a ledge about 20 meters deep at Sipadan Turtle Tomb somewhere near Drop Off.


Swarm of barracudas spiraling in estatic circles. One of the must catch sights at Sipadan.





















One of many whitetip reef sharks gliding gracefully from shallows of 10 meters to beyond.













Another close of up a turtle. Unlike other spots when you get excited when you spot one, you find them shuttling back and forth at Sipadan.

Jessica luring this turtle with bits of sweet potato. Got his on video. Real beauty. She was so pleased with it.
