Labuan isn’t on every diver’s radar—and that’s exactly why you should go. It’s a place that offers something raw, real, and unexplored by the masses. Clear waters, incredible wrecks, and a vibe that takes you back to the roots of diving. No crowds. Just you, your team, and history beneath the waves.
Hosted by Labuan Rusukan Besar Resort, this 4D/3N dive trip is all about wrecks. You’ll dive four of Southeast Asia’s most iconic shipwrecks, each with its own story and challenges. There’s something different about wreck diving. The deeper depths, the eerie silence, the history you can feel as you glide past the structures... it’s a dive you won’t forget.
Australian Wreck (SS De Klerk)
History: Originally a Dutch passenger liner named SS De Klerk, it was seized by the Japanese during World War II and renamed Imbari Maru. In 1944, it was sunk by a mine.
Dive Experience: Resting at a depth of 33 meters, divers can explore its intact structure, which has become a habitat for diverse marine life.
American Wreck (USS Salute)
History: The USS Salute was a U.S. Navy minesweeper that struck a mine in 1945 during the liberation of Borneo.
Dive Experience: Lying at 30 meters, the wreck is a poignant reminder of wartime history, now encrusted with corals and frequented by schools of fish.
Blue Water Wreck (Mabini Padre)
History: This Philippine trawler caught fire and sank in 1981.

Cement Wreck (MV Tung Hwang)
