Plongée à Brunei Wrecks — Brunei

Brunei's wreck diving is Southeast Asia's best-kept secret, with several oil industry support vessels and WWII wrecks sitting in warm, dark waters off the sultanate's coast. The absence of dive tourism means sites are virtually untouched and marine growth is prolific. Alcohol is banned in Brunei, keeping nightlife muted.
