Si Amil island
- Scuba Diving Borneo Semporna Sabah Malaysia.
Si-Amil is located south of
Boheyan and
more than an hour by speed boat from Semporna. It is the only island with a
steep hill covered in rainforest that is home to a large group of moneys.
Landing on the main beach the left over of a Japanese fish factory that was
built as a cover for surveillance activities prior to WW2 can be seen. Right
in front of the main beach there is the wreck of an old vessel that was used
by the Japanese during the war with the boiler being the main point of
interest. At the east side of the island, where the ocean floor drops into
the several hundred meter deep Alice Channel, the dive sites offer excellent
visibility with colorful sea fans and hard coral domination the landscape.
At night bamboo sharks are seen in numbers, but even in day time shark
sightings are common as well as schooling rainbow runner and rays.
