If you ever want to explore a whole new universe, you could take up diving.

And this is easy to do in Malaysia, too, where there are many wonderful dive sites with interesting marine biodiversity. This is perhaps the main reason why diving has always been a very popular activity among tourists – both foreign and local – in the country. You might even say that there is a good diving spot in almost every state in Malaysia.
