Campsites in Mabul Island are beachfront tent pitches on Mabul Island, off the coast of Sabah in Malaysian Borneo. These campsites provide basic overnight accommodation for divers and backpackers seeking direct access to the island's famous muck-diving sites. The campsites sit within walking distance of local villages and dive centres, with the Celebes Sea on one side and jungle on the other.
What to expect
- Tent pitches are set directly on sandy ground, with a shared bathroom block and cold-water showers included in the nightly rate.
- Each pitch includes a two-person tent, sleeping mat, and a mosquito net; you bring your own sleeping bag or liner.
- The campsite is a 5-minute walk from the main jetty and a 10-minute walk to the nearest dive shop, where tank fills and gear rental are available for an extra fee.
- Breakfast (eggs, toast, coffee) is served at the on-site canteen from 7:00 to 9:00, with lunch and dinner available for purchase.
- The site is suitable for budget travellers and certified divers; non-divers can snorkel the house reef directly off the beach, but there is no lifeguard on duty.
- Electricity is available from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM via a shared generator; no Wi-Fi is provided, and mobile signal is intermittent.
