Better than the Barrier Reef | Discover Sabah, Borneo Ep222

On our first day in the marine park we’re told to avoid those potential pirates in paradise by staying within sight of our armed military escort. But before Jamie sets off for some Mabul Island diving (and Liz stays behind to sit around and do nothing all day) we try a little exploring in the dinghy and can’t help going off limits.
00:00 Do specs and sunglasses work together?
00:24 Is this the BEST and BIGGEST marine park?
04:10 Plastic invasion…
04:35 Magical mystery tour
08:52 Pot luck supper with an ARMED ESCORT
11:01 Diving at the BEST spot ever…so far!
16:44 Fancy vacationing on an oil rig?
