Malaysia is one of Asia’s top diving destinations, and is home to some of the world's most exotic marine life. Because Malaysia lies near the equator, the water temperatures stay about 26 to 30 C year-round. And those warm waters teem with biodiversity, including whale sharks, the largest fish in the world.
One of your best bets for some whale shark action is Lankayan Island, a small coral island in the Sulu Sea off Malaysian Borneo. You’re most likely to see whale sharks there from March to May.
There are, of course, plenty of other fish in the seas around Malaysia, as I discovered in my Travel Wire Asia article titled, "7 most exotic species to dive with in Malaysia."
