There are 2 emergency oxygen supplies - every day 1 unit travels down to Sipadan on one of the boats, and the other remains at Sipadan Water Village for patients with suspected DCI sickness from Mabul. Each day 1 boat is on standby at the resort for any necessary emergency transfer to Semporna for medical attention.
Currently, the nearest re-compression chamber is located at the Navy Base in Semporna, on the Sabah mainland. We strongly recommend that you have your own diving insurance to cover emergencies.
For non-diving related emergencies, there is also a hospital at Semporna.
The resort is patrolled by 24 hour security, and you can safeguard your own valuables in a safety box at reception.
