Why Dive from an Oil Rig? The Seaventures Experience

Imagine waking up to panoramic ocean views, walking just a few steps, and descending directly into one of the most biodiverse dive sites on the planet. Welcome to Seaventures Dive Rig—the world’s first and only oil rig turned dive resort. Anchored just off the coast of Mabul Island in the heart of the coral triangle, and minutes from the legendary Sipadan, Seaventures offers a diving experience unlike any other in Malaysia.

So, what makes oil rig diving so special?

First, it’s all about access. With our elevator-style dive platform, you can be in the water within minutes—no long boat rides or crowded beaches. Our house reef, right beneath the rig, is a thriving artificial reef that attracts an incredible array of macro life, making it a paradise for photographers and critter hunters. And the best part? We offer unlimited house reef dives, so you can explore as much as you want, whenever you want.

Then there’s the vibe. Seaventures isn’t your typical dive resort. It’s a floating community of divers, ocean lovers, and adventurers. From PADI courses for beginners to advanced diving and even cave diving, everything you need is right here on the rig.

Add to that front-row access to Sipadan, comfortable accommodations, stunning sunsets from the top deck, and eco-conscious operations—it’s easy to see why diving from an oil rig is not just different, but unforgettable.
