    Malapascua: Ocean Vida or Evolution?

    Can not comment on Ocean but I dove with Evolution a few years back and they were very good and safety conscious.

    Capt'n Gregg's burned

    Captain Gregg’s is one of the best dive shops around PG. Have had about 10 stays with them and now when they have rebuilt need to go back to give them the support they need.

    Malapascua - Recommendations please

    Stayed with Evolution last summer. Good room, service and support. Very professional. Would be happy to go back and dive with them with them again. Gato Island was fantastic but a bit crowded with poor divers at the time I was there (you know the ones that like to cover their head in cloth...

    Dive Shop Recommendations For Boracay?

    Got my AOW with Fish Eye a couple of years back. They were ok, had a good Instructor from Ukraine, Yuri, not sure if he is still there. Good location on beach.

    New risk level ?

    I dove Moalboal and Malipascqua last summer (which by the way was fantastic) and this year i was planning to go to Bohol (Pangaloa, Apo, Balisaq specifically) then the news about these scumbags came through. I might reconsider my plans as this is not a pleasant thing to have to worry about while...

    cebu -> maasin -> cebu on weesam express

    Really intrigued now. I am a regular at Capt. Greggs in Sabang and this summer I did my first trip to Malapasqua and Moalboal and in my opinion all three places are fantastic in their own way. How would Sogod compare? I enjoy unusual and the weird critters one find at the places I mentioned...

    Going To Malapascua in a couple of days

    I stayed with Evolution this summer and my recommendation would be to charge the drinks and meals you have there to your room and then pay all hotel, dives and food by credit card when you check out. I prepaid most of my dives and hotel via PayPal to avoid any shortages at the the last minute...

    Anilao vs Puerto Galera vs Bohol for 4 days diving ?

    Centrals, thanks for the heads up. I had no idea it is not allowed to across at night with a private boat. I assumed it was fine as I had hotel set up private car and private boat transfers. The boats I have taken have not left the Batangas pier but left from a place which appeared to be...

    Anilao vs Puerto Galera vs Bohol for 4 days diving ?

    My advice would be just to suck up the cost and arrange for private transfer. A bit expensive but well worth it especially if you just want to get to Sabang quickly at that time at night. Also, this way you can be on first dive at 9AM the following morning. Every hotel in Sabang can set it up...

    Petition to Save the Verde Island Passage in Batangas (Philippines)

    Just signed the petition as it would be a shame to have such a beautiful place destroyed and it is interesting to read how the locals would just be moved somewhere else......this is a case where the FBI should be getting involved and looking at grabbing the Principals of the Canadian company for...

    Puerto Galera / Sabang quick in and out

    Four dives per day should be no problem. Their regular schedule was 10am, 12:30, 3 and night dive at 6. Restaurant was good, manager and servers courteous. They have a nice grill special for kebabs and fish on weekends which to be recommended. breakfast was good with choices and I loved sitting...

    Puerto Galera / Sabang quick in and out

    I don't have any specific comments to watch out for at the Blue Ribbon as I was quite happy there. As many places in Sabang it is not a huge place so staff get to know you quickly which is nice. I am usually very laid back when on dive trips and trust local guides judgement on places to go etc...

    Puerto Galera / Sabang quick in and out

    I recently had the pleasure to do a quick visit to Sabang and oh boy did this place deliver. Sitting on the plane back to the States yesterday with a big smile on my face and reflecting the experience, I must say that Sabang exceeded my expectations by far and I am already looking forward to...
