Brunei Darussalam Holidays, The Brunei Bay wrecks are regarded as the most interesting and accessible wreck dives in the region. Their close proximity to city accommodation and air links, and convenient boat access, makes taking in a few dives quick and convenient when visiting Brunei. Weekend excursions from other regional centres are also very feasible.

Brunei's coastal reefs are amongst the best preserved in the region. Some are classified as fish nurseries and protected habitats. They are a safe haven for marine life and at relatively shallow depths, ideal for recreational divers.

Numerous reefs along Brunei's coast have been declared off limits for commercial fishing. Some areas have been protected by placement of old rig structures around them; designed to protect the reefs from commercial fishing nets.
 
The water temperature is around 25 to 28 degrees Celsius, all year round. Most diving is done in the morning, when sea conditions are at their calmest.
