Sabah's Scuba Junkie named world's Best Scuba Diving Centre 2020
KOTA KINABALU: A Sabah-based dive operator has clinched a top global diving award despite a severe downturn in the tourism industry due to the Covid-19 outbreak.
Scuba Junkie beat over 1,000 operators worldwide and was named the 'Best Scuba Diving Dive Centre or Resort in the World for 2020' in the prestigious Dive Magazine's annual Travel Awards.
Travel Awards winners were chosen by votes from readers across the globe.
In expressing his gratitude, Scuba Junkie founder and director Richard Owen said the company did not only aim at providing incredible underwater experiences, but also to foster a sense of responsibility towards protecting the marine environment.
"We are honoured to have won this award. It has been a difficult year for everyone, so it's heartening to have the ongoing support from our guests in this way.
"We have a strong focus on marine conservation that resonates with our guests. Conservation of the local environment, both above and below the waves, has been at the heart of Scuba Junkie, right from our inception."
He said it is imperative for the dive operator to play a role in protecting and conserving the marine environment to provide guests with unforgettable underwater experiences in Sabah and other locations where they operate.
Stressing on Scuba Junkie's continuous efforts to enhance safety and high training standards, Owen said he looks forward to welcoming visitors back for more incredible diving when it is safe to do so.
This strong focus on marine conservation is also shared by Scuba Junkie's dive centres in Indonesia.
"We are truly delighted to have won this award, it is a fitting reflection of our dedicated staff who share their love for diving and conservation with all of our guests," said Indonesia Scuba Junkie director Rohan Perkins.
Set up in 2004, Scuba Junkie began operating on Pulau Sipadan and moved to Mabul Island with the establishment of its Mabul Beach Resort in 2009.
Since then, the dive operator expanded its operation to Kota Kinabalu and Indonesia – specifically in Komodo, Sangalaki and Nusa Penida, Bali.
Meanwhile, Malaysia was also ranked third in the "Best Destination" category for diving spots in the world, a major improvement over last year's placement which was outside of the Top 10.
