Pulau Sibuan is beautiful island and one of the eight islands forming the Tun Sakaran Marine Park. In fact, it is said to be among the loveliest islands in the Celebes Sea. From Semporna, the boat journey to Sibuan island takes around 30 minutes, though it could take longer depending on the tide. While there are no resorts of places to stay on the islands (as a visit organised here are mainly for day trips), the clear waters and silver sand make it a great spot for anyone who is interested in Scuba Diving and Snorkelling. With a great combination of shallow plateaus and steep slopes, the island forms a great bed for diving courses, both intermediate as well as advanced. Sibuan is a low-lying (1 to 2 meters above sea level) sandy island situated atop a coral reef in the north-western side of Bodgaya. It is triangular in shape, 15.13 acres in area, and was formed by the remnants of a nearby coral reef. Limestone rock formation can be seen on various parts of the island.
