A Royal Welcome

“It is my great pleasure to invite underwater photographers from within Malaysia and all over the world to my beautiful State of Terengganu to see for themselves her beauty under the waves and participate in this Inaugural Edition of the annual competition for the SULTAN MIZAN UNDERWATER PHOTOGRAPHY AWARD. I am sure there will be no lack of subjects or seascapes to keep you fully occupied in the waters around our islands of Perhentian, Lang Tengah, Redang, Tenggol, Kapas, Bidong and Gemia. And between your dives, be sure to enjoy the beautiful sunrise on the horizon, the walks on the white sands of our beaches, the refreshing sea breeze and the sound of the waves on our shores. And of course, the warm hospitality and great food that we Malaysians are famous for!

I wish all participants the very best in the competition. But it is never more true here that winning is not the most important. It is the taking part and enjoying everything that my beautiful Terengganu has to offer, both on land and in the sea.”

His Royal Highness Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin of Terengganu

SULTAN MIZAN UNDERWATER PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS

About

SULTAN MIZAN UNDERWATER PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS is an annual underwater photography competition to celebrate the best underwater images captured in Terengganu waters. Terengganu is a state on the east coast of peninsula/West Malaysia and is blessed with the most beautiful islands of the country, resplendent with lush greenery and white sandy beaches. The waters off those islands are fairly pristine and calm most of the year. Marine life, both fauna and “flora” (corals), are plentiful and varied. Divers and underwater photographers are usually spoilt for choice of subjects to capture into their memory, both cerebral and digital!

SULTAN MIZAN UNDERWATER PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS is A Non-Profit Event.

Mission

To promote tourism in Terengganu’s islands


As the world embraces social media as mainstream advertisement and marketing platform, the photographers themselves become our best promoters. A picture is worth a thousand words. Those images will be a showcase of the underwater splendors of Terengganu.
