    2nd dive trip to Philippines in October

    Mindanao? Supposed to be some pretty damn good diving that way! Pretty cheap too I think.

    Oslob Cebu Philippines for whale shark or butanding scuba diving

    It worries me that you can ensure that a creature with natural migration is guaranteed to be in Oslob in 2 months time. Perhaps further enlightenment on the situation in the area and the negative impact on behavioral patterns. I think enough has been said on this subject from both sides, and if...

    Moalboal Cebu sardines in August 25, 2012 time range

    I notice you have asked a similar question on another thread about Oslob. It is pretty impossible to say if the sardines or whalesharks will be there on or around August 25th ;) If they keep feeding the whalesharks, then I guess they will still be there. As for the sardines (are they actually...

    Rocket Fins failure

    Thanks for the help guys and getting this sorted. They are on their way via LBC (sent yesterday) so I expect they will arrive today. Sorry it took so long but at least we have come to a resolution with it! My only concern is that the same failure happens again and I am left finless! Thanks...

    Dumaguete - Malapascua

    I think the flight from Dumaguete to Cebu is around 8 or 8.30am. Depends on how you want to get from Cebu to Maya. You can do a private transfer which I think (and I'm not 100% - I've never done it) for around 2000php (give or take 500). That'll take 2.5 to 3 hours. Or you can get the bus...

    Visayas Diving Itinerary--April 2013

    Glad to see you have thought about coming to dive with us nankivell. April was a good month here this year. Dauin reefs nice and warm, great vis....and Apo Island, what can I say...fantastic diving. I would definitely recommend Malapascua (I used to work up there). And I would also put in a...

    Rocket Fins failure

    I would rather have not posted this, but I will remain as tactful as possible. Once again, I seem to have only gotten so far with as response before contact has been dropped. I must admit I am very disappointed in the customer service given from both your UK, US offices, as well as your...

    Philippines potential diving holiday

    It's the lesser of two evils, right? That was certainly my opinion on it. Does it change the behavior and its it unnatural - yes. Does it stop the fisherman going out to catch other stuff and provide some level of awareness and conservation - of course. I heard there are whalesharks elsewhere...

    Rocket Fins failure

    I purchased them from a supplier in the Philippines (I believe you main stockist here) - Aquaventure WhiteTip Dive Supplies. When it comes to these things they seem to be less that helpful, but that isn't your issue at all. I did consider repairing them, but didn't wish to do so before...

    I'm looking for advice on dive resorts

    No, that's Edgar. He wasn't on the boats when I was there. Just overseeing things. I think it all depends on the day, but when you have a boat full of customers, you just wish the GPS was being used :)

    I'm looking for advice on dive resorts

    That was a lucky day for one of them then. I spent time on the boat insisting they use the GPS. I gave up when they refused and were searching for 2 hours 1km away from the Dona Marilyn. It's a head in hands moment on days like that. It's even better when you drift off it during the SI and they...

    Malapascua Dive shop

    All I'm hearing (and all I ever see on here) when Malapascua is mentioned, is go to Evolution. TSD and Sea Ex would be the next to try on my list, if I didn't already have a home away from home. Grub is pretty damn good at Evolution too (still the best daal I've ever had). Plenty of...

    Malapascua Dive shop

    Are you asking for a good dive shop which is reasonably priced...or are you asking for any cheap dive shop? There is a big difference in value between the two!

    R.I.P. Tom Morato. Manila

    I am very sorry to say that I never met Tom. I happened to email him on the 26th, and I am extremely sorry to say he will not be my cave instructor. RIP Tom, I will have always missed the opportunity to have you train me. One opportunity I am sure to regret. May peace be with all those who...
