Baby Shark Dive CenterDive center

Baby Shark Dive Center sits in the middle of Kota Kinabalu, in Sabah, surrounded by hotels, backpacker lodges and coffee shops. It is a PADI 5 Star Dive Center with a strong freediving side, so freediving gets as much attention here as scuba.

Three founders with backgrounds in diving, customer service and marketing started it. The logo carries the story: three waves for facing wind and sea, a circle for the diving community, and a shark fin for protecting the ocean. The center aims to build a local scuba and freediving community, alongside snorkeling, conservation programs and Emergency First Response. Teaching happens in English, Mandarin, Cantonese and Malay.
