Mabul Homestay
Bargman's Homestay costs RM900 for 3d2n plus 3 dives a day (minimum 4pax). This includes food, accomodation and 7 dives(excl. equipment). You can opt to dive in sipadan and kapalai. Extremely friendly and experienced Master Instructor (who is a local). He doesn't have any website or an office, but he can be contacted at 089-784150 or 012-8198227(m).

Personally, i like to help locals develop, so if you have friends interested, you can email me also at tomsjalan2@yahoo.com.

Agnes Keith
The two-storey house was the residence of author Agnes Keith and her husband, Harry, who was Conservator of Forest and Curator of North Borneo Museum during the time of the British.

Keith wrote three internationally-acclaimed books on Sabah while living in the rebuilt house. Her first book was about life in North Borneo in the 1930s and was called Land Below The Wind. The title was supposedly inspired by the constant breeze around her home. The Sabah Tourism Promotion Corporation is using the title as a tag line in its promotional efforts with the hope of capitalising on the market drawn by the book. Keith's second book, Three Came Home, was made into a film. White Man Returns was her third book.
