Sabah reef-and-wall dive with cracks, macro life, and boats.

About Lobster Lair
A Sabah reef-and-wall dive with cracks, crevices, and a clear macro bias. Lobster Lair is the kind of site that rewards a slower boat day: work the rock, scan the ledges, and spend time looking for small life instead of rushing a drift. Public guides put the easier lines in the shallow-to-mid range and the deeper lines on a more advanced profile.
