STORMDIVE暴风潜水 - Semporna, Sabah

Dimitry S.

We did two days of diving with Storm Dive. We only tried this dive shop, so my opinion is quite focused.

What I can say is that we had an excellent time. The team is really great — professional and qualified to ensure you have a good experience. I recommend asking for Daniel for your trip — he’ll make sure there's a good vibe.

They offer lunch with the team, and it's very decent — everything you need. They provide water and take good care of you. The price is not more expensive than elsewhere (we checked, and it’s more or less the same, within a 15% range).

The big advantage is that there aren’t too many people on the boat — a maximum of 8 divers, plus 4 crew members.

That’s everything! Enjoy your dive!

我在这家店报了OW+AOW课程，但因为某位脾气暴躁、态度极差的潜水女教练，导致在仙本那的整个行程成了糟糕的回忆。对于刚接触潜水一两天的新手来说，装拆设备顺序搞错、中性浮力控制不好不是很正常吗？但这些却成了她一浮出水面就开始滔滔不绝挖苦讽刺的理由。这只是两个简单的例子，任何小事都能让她大发雷霆。当我试图表达困惑并希望她好好沟通时，她却批评我“顶嘴”。真是无语，真把自己当老佛爷了。
I signed up for the OW+AOW courses at this shop, but because of a certain female diving instructor with an explosive temper and an incredibly bad attitude, the entire trip in Semporna became a terrible memory. For beginners who’ve just started diving for a day or two, isn’t it normal to mix up the order of assembling/disassembling equipment or struggle with neutral buoyancy? Yet these things became reasons for her endless sarcastic remarks and condescending lectures the moment we surfaced. These are just two simple examples—she would fly into a rage over every little thing. When I tried to express my confusion and hoped she could communicate better, she accused me of "talking back." Unbelievable. She really acts like she’s the Empress Dowager.

Perfect voor eerste keer scuba duiken! Het was een geweldige ervaring en zeker een aanrader! So naar het personeel en zeker naar Ayman!

I was originally just looking to do some snorkeling trips. Then I heard there were several diving opportunities, especially at Sipadan. What really convinced me was the chance to see hammerhead sharks. It was around 250 euros for 3 dives (2 at Sipadan, 1 at Mabul), which is quite a lot.

After joining the dive center at dawn, we quickly boarded the boat. However, the organization was quite poor. We spent about an hour in Semporna Bay collecting permits, equipment, etc.

I understand that the trip to Sipadan is long, but we ended up arriving rather late, at 10 a.m. As a result, I was informed on the boat that we wouldn’t be going to the dive site where the hammerhead sharks are usually seen because we had to choose between two dive sites — a choice I was never really given.

It’s not the fact that I didn’t see hammerhead sharks that bothers me, but rather the fact that we didn’t even go to the spot where there was a chance of seeing them.

We ended up diving at the other two sites, which were honestly very beautiful. But the dive supervision wasn’t particularly good, and there was a real lack of awareness about the local wildlife and coral conservation.

I’m sorry to leave this negative comment, but when you sell an experience with a detailed program and then announce at the last minute that the plan will be different, it feels a bit dishonest.

I dived with Stormdive for 3 weeks in Sipadan and Semporna. Really good service and amazing staff! They did everything so each of my dives would be unique and I would manage to do everything that the places have to offer! It was so good and fun every time that I decided to get my Stress & Rescue certification with them.
Thank you for the familiarity, the awesome dives and the amazing footage you took! Can't wait to come back and dive with you again!
