Scuba Junkie have this one down to a science: a two day course with the first part being done online. Once on the ground you will get certified and gain basic familiarity with equipment and diving skills through confined and open water dives of up to 18 meters.  After you will get to enjoy diving in the Celebes Sea. The theory part is done online prior to arrival. Last two days include leisure dives in Sipadan and Mabul. Dorm accommodation is based on Mabul Island. Opt for an upgrade to enjoy private accomodation.
