    Be careful in Coron: operator(s) taking non-wreck certified divers inside the shipwrecks

    Thank you all for your replies. I agree with all the posters that going inside the shipwreck was my responsibility. Until this point of my very short diving life, I've always blindly trusted my divemasters because I always thought that if there's a potential problem ahead, he or she would know...

    Be careful in Coron: operator(s) taking non-wreck certified divers inside the shipwrecks

    I'm traveling Philippines for a month and I'm having a blast, after I'm back home I'll post a complete dive report. But, in the meantime, I'd like to warn everyone about what happened to me in Coron just a few days ago. I'm AOW certified with less than 40 logged dives and I decided to do fun...

    Open Water course either in Columbia or Panama

    Need advice! Koh Phangan + Koh Tao or Similan or Phuket + Phi Phi?

    Yes, I've read about the mourning period but it seems that the "no entertainment" period will end on mid november, so I suppose that everything will be back to normal when I'll be there in late december. Thank you for your input :) Where on Andaman Coast would you recommend me? Between Phuket...
