Compare the listed location and agency details, then open a centre profile for its sources and the questions to ask before booking.
Four entries are sourced listings of independently operated centres. TDB Semporna is our forthcoming project and remains Coming Soon; its inclusion does not confirm current operations or booking availability.

Scuba Junkie Semporna
Scuba Junkie has a Semporna town base at Block B, Lot 36, separate from its Mabul Beach Resort. Its PADI record and official contact page support this town listing.

Coming Soon
TDB Semporna is our forthcoming project in Semporna, Sabah. Its official homepage still announces that it is arriving soon, so this directory labels it Coming Soon rather than confirming current operations. Follow the official website for updates; an opening date, operational services and availability for your dates remain unconfirmed here.

We operate the TDB centres in this directory. Independent operators are labelled separately and handle their own enquiries and bookings. These listings are not rankings or reports of personal inspections.
The Details Make the Difference
Make the Trip Work for You.
Choose the base, understand the arrival arrangements and make your diving plans specific to the people travelling.
Start With the Actual Semporna Base
Semporna is the Sabah town base for this directory group, on Malaysian Borneo. Scuba Junkie, Quality Diving Centre and Borneo Speedy Dive have different Seafront addresses, while Semporna Blue Ocean is listed at Dragon Inn, Lot R10. Keep the centre name and exact meeting instructions together; a general waterfront destination does not identify every operator.
Scuba Junkie provides a useful example of why the distinction matters. Its Semporna contact address and Mabul Beach Resort refer to separate places. Ask whether your proposed stay and training are based in town or on the island, then confirm how the boat transfer connects them. Do not copy one operator’s arrival instructions into another booking.
Ask for a Specific Diving Plan
Mabul, Kapalai and Sipadan appear in local operator descriptions, but a destination name does not confirm your itinerary. Ask which places are included in the written proposal, what access remains to be confirmed and how the plan changes if the original outing cannot proceed. Keep those answers separate from accommodation and any mainland transfer arrangement.
For a course, explain your current experience and preferred teaching language. For a certified diving trip, describe when you last dived and the equipment you will bring or rent. Listed languages, nitrox and rental services help identify useful questions; they do not reserve an instructor, a cylinder or a particular equipment size for your dates.
Read the Status and Source Notes
The four independent centre profiles link to their PADI records and identify any source limitations. Borneo Speedy’s displayed agency designation differs from its descriptive text, so its profile explains that difference. Quality Diving Centre also appears under DFS Borneo Sdn Bhd. These details help connect an enquiry to the correct business without assigning a ranking.
TDB Semporna is our forthcoming project and its homepage still announces that it is arriving soon. It appears here with Coming Soon status and an official update link, without confirmed opening dates or operational services. If your trip dates are fixed, obtain an actual arrangement from the operator you choose. This directory is a starting point for that conversation, not booking confirmation.
