It is situated 300km northwest of Kota Kinabalu in Sabah, Malaysia
also known as "The Jewels of the Borneo Banks". Off the mystical island
of Borneo lies a little gem, a sparkle within the deep blue sea. Like a
mariner's dream, it stands all alone, a striking haven in the wide ocean
waiting to be discovered.
This is the intriguing island of Layang Layang, a coral-blessed, deep
sea atoll off the coast of Sabah; a kaleidescopic underwater world like
no other. This marine heritage is a geographical wonder, with the atoll
rising from the deep blue of 2,000m, hardly breaching the
surface.
As many as 13 coral reefs have formed here, creating breathtaking
underwater scenery. Diving is the pinnacle of Layang Layang's
beautiful experience - expect a vacation like no other on this isolated
atoll.
