Tourism Malaysia to showcase adventure tourism offerings

Adventure Tours to Malaysia will enable you to have access to adventure sports such as Rock Climbing, Trekking, Skydiving, and Adventure Racing and more.

One of the more popular adventure sports in Malaysia is diving. It is this adventure sport that Tourism Malaysia will be promoting at the upcoming edition of Adrenaline Sports Live, presented by Rani. Tourism Malaysia will have a presence at the show in an effort to encourage people to consider Malaysia as a destination for adrenaline and adventure sports.

"Malaysia is a land that is blessed with natural wonders galore, making it perfect for a memorable eco-holiday. We believe that Adrenaline Sports Live, presented by Rani is a great platform for Tourism Malaysia to attract potential travellers to experience the natural wonders of Malaysia Truly Asia",

Tuan Razali Tuan Omar, Director, Tourism Malaysia Dubai.

To encourage awareness of their offerings, Tourism Malaysia will be giving away a dive-trip for two people to Sipadan Island during the show. The package includes return economy class flight tickets for two, return economy class domestic flight tickets for two, twin-sharing accommodation at Mabul Island Resort for 5 days 4 nights, 3 meals a day, free flow of selected light snacks and beverages, 3 boat dives a day in Sipadan/Mabul Island, diving permit, return land and boat transfers!

Sipadan is the only oceanic island in Malaysia, rising 600 m from the seabed. It is in the Celebes Sea, off the coast of eastern Malaysia and was formed by living corals growing on top of an extinct volcanic cone. Sipadan is located at the center of one of the richest marine habitats in the world, offering divers the opportunity to see more than 3,000 species of fish and hundreds of coral species.

The late Jacques Cousteau, the world-renowned oceanographer, described Sipadan Island as 'an untouched piece of art', while divers around the world voted it as one of the top five dive sites in the world. More recently, Sipadan Island has been nominated for the 'New 7 Wonders of Nature'.

Malaysia, truly Asia, has a flight time of only 7 hours, and with the breadth of adventure sports available in the country, as well as having a large muslim population, will certainly appeal to many visitors to the Adrenaline Sports Live festival.

The Adventure Tourism zone of Adrenaline Sports Live, presented by Rani, aims to offer visitors the opportunity to book mini-breaks at the festival with an adventure or adrenaline sports component.
