September Diving

[Renz]

Hi everyone,
we have two weeks in September and trying to decide where to go..
possibly few days liveboard..?
We've already been to Sulawesi-Bunaken and Malaysia-Redang and loved both!!
We are 2 AOP divers and beginners photographers.

We were looking at Sabah-Sipadan, but read mixed reviews..
Also Philipines..
Is there a place or two you would suggest, bearing in mind the time of season?
Thanks

Friends of mine were also quite short in time with booking Sipadan. But they were said to be booked out (Kapalai, Mabul and the platform). So I would rather have a look at that, because it is the main season. If I remeber right, the Malaysians and Singapori (right expression?) have a week holiday.

Season: Sipadan the "best" in terms of rain, Philipines not so good. But for beginners I would rather suggest Philipines, because Sipadan will be crowded and dropoff / current.
