| Divers
will need to produce their certification cards and log books before
they are allowed to join a diving expedition.
Malaysia
accepts PADI, NAUI, SSI and BSAC certifications. Dive operators
reserve the right to require a refresher course for any diver
who cannot show proof of diving in the last 12 months.
All
dives must be done with a buddy. No solo dives are allowed and
most dives are limited to a maximum of 130 feet or 40 metres.
Those wishing to night dive must show proof of night, cavern or
wreck diving and must exit the water by 10pm.
Most
operators reserve the right to decide on the fitness of an individual
to dive. It is strongly suggested that a prospective diver respect
and adhere to the views of these professionals. Diving insurance
is also highly recommended.
Divers will have to sign a liability waiver before their dives.

| With
the necessary precautions and respect for their partners
and divemasters as well as the denizens of deep, divers
will enjoy acident free explorations.

standards and are self regulating through certified bodies.

oxygen and survival rescue kits along their own rescue trained
divemaster.

the water with your partner and stay together
