90: BEST MUCK DIVING IN THE WORLD - Malaysia's Mabul Scuba Junkie Resort

We believe that muck diving in Mabul, Malaysia at Scuba Junkie Dive Resort is the best in the world! And, that is no surprise given its location; the Coral Triangle is a triangular area located in the western Pacific Ocean and hosts an astonishing amount of marine life. Seventy-five percent of the world's coral species are found here-nearly 600 different species. Over 2000 different types of reef fish find refuge in these dazzling underwater gardens, and this is an important place for tuna to spawn. Whales, dolphins, porpoises, dugongs and whale sharks feed, breed and migrate in these waters. And the Coral Triangle is home to six of the world's seven species of marine turtles. Given Mabul's location in the coral triangle, it is not a surprise that it boasts a wide variety of macro marine creatures and a proliferation of sea life we have not seen anywhere else in the world. When a group of 5 mating stonefish are photobombing a photograph of an ornate ghostpipefish, you know you are in macro heaven! This is why it has become our favorite macro dive destinations. In this video, you will also learn a little bit about the cuttlefish, an amazingly intelligent cephalopod! We hope you enjoy the video and put Mabul on your dive bucket list! #scubajunkie #scubadiving #sipidan #mabul #mabulisland #malaysia #nudibranch #stonefish #ghostpipefish NEW TO OUR CHANNEL? We are Eileen and Brown Councill. Welcome to our channel and a glimpse into our life adventure! 2020 was a year of uncertainty and change (for all of us, right?), but we overcame the challenges and decided it was time to chase our dream, to sail around the world! Did I mention that we had very NO sailing experience? Before leaving Qingdao, China, our home of 4 years, we sold almost all of our earthly possessions and started our international search to find the right sailboat that we would call "home." After 5 months of unanticipated twists and turns, we found what we were looking for, a used Leopard 44' Catamaran located in St. Lucia. So, here begins our journey, filled with unmatched excitement and honestly, a bit of trepidation as well. We have much to learn as we travel the world on our floating home and we intend to document that journey and share it with you. We are so glad you have decided to join us, and we hope that you will find our story so compelling that it will inspire you to chase your dreams too!
