Plongée à Labuan Wrecks — Malaysia
Labuan island off Borneo is a duty-free zone hiding four significant WWII shipwrecks in its murky but warm waters. The cement wreck and American wreck are festooned with soft corals and resident fish schools. Visibility is the trade-off, but wreck enthusiasts will find plenty to explore at budget prices.
