Recognised as Asia's largest and longest-running dive consumer and trade show, ADEX serves as a premier platform to showcase Malaysia’s world-class diving destinations.

Held at the Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Centre in Singapore from 4 to 6 April 2025, ADEX Ocean Festival is expected to attract thousands of visitors from around the globe, showcasing a remarkable array of activities, including dive exhibitions, marine conservation workshops, and interactive displays. As a key player in regional tourism, Tourism Malaysia is dedicated to promoting Malaysia's rich underwater heritage and diverse marine ecosystems, particularly in renowned destinations such as Sipadan, Mabul, Tioman and the islands of Terengganu.

"Participating in ADEX Ocean Festival 2025 is an invaluable opportunity for Malaysia to highlight our stunning underwater tourism offerings and our commitment to marine conservation," said Datuk Manoharan Periasamy, Director General of Tourism Malaysia. "We invite attendees to explore our vibrant marine life, pristine coral reefs, and the incredible dive experiences that our country has to offer. Our presence at the festival also emphasises the importance of protecting our oceans while encouraging responsible tourism as we gear up for Visit Malaysia 2026."

The Visit Malaysia 2026 campaign aims to showcase the country's rich cultural heritage and stunning natural landscapes as well as its vibrant diving scene, which offers some of the best underwater experiences in the world. As the campaign unfolds, it promotes sustainable diving practices that protect these precious ecosystems.

At the festival, Tourism Malaysia hosts a dedicated booth featuring six dive operators showcasing their products. Tourism Malaysia is poised to captivate underwater enthusiasts with compelling reasons to explore the wonders of Malaysia.

With a 31-year history, ADEX serves as a vital platform for marine education and information sharing and enables exhibitors such as dive operators, equipment manufacturers and national tourism boards to cultivate business relationships and showcase their offerings to the diving community. Each year, ADEX dedicates its theme to a specific marine species or environmental trend, aiming to raise greater public awareness about ocean conservation.
