    Sri Lanka in July

    Thanks Searcaigh. Might need to reassess. I’d love to do the Hermes but not an option for the family.

    Sri Lanka in July

    Hi I'm looking at heading to Sri Lanka for the first time this coming July. It's a family trip, combination of having a look around as well as doing some diving. From what I have read, we need to stay on the eastern side for diving at that time of year so I was thinking of splitting the time...

    Cabo Pulmo/La Paz

    Hi Kumi, can you recommend any accommodation options? I've had a look on airbnb but it's tough to tell. They all look pretty basic. Hardly any have aircon either. Thanks for your help.

    Cabo Pulmo/La Paz

    Kumi, how many days of diving would you recommend we do at Cabo Pulmo? We were thinking either 4 or 5. What is the minimum to see the key dive sites? Thanks

    ibj, kumi & Lynn, thanks for your replies. I've emailed Pilu but no reply as yet. Will also check out CP Watersports. Thanks for the accom recommendations. Kumi - Where does the shuttle run from, the airport? Do you know if there is a shuttle from CP to La Paz?

    Philippines in July/Aug??

    Thanks, problem is I'm not sure where we should be diving that's why I was leaning towards the Abyss World Visayas safari to which I would add on a Malapascua visit. What's the view of these safaris? It looks good from the point of view of having a quick look at a number of different areas. Lee

    Philippines in July/Aug??

    Thanks Roger, there will be 4 of us. The problem with doing it yourself is actually knowing where to go and where to stay etc. I liked the safari idea simply because it would give us a look at a number of different areas, and of course everything is pre-organised, but you obviously pay for...

    Philippines in July/Aug??

    Thanks guys. Yes it is the weather that I was concerned about. We do an international dive trip once a year and I didn't want to go to the Philippines only to head into a hurricane or something like that. We usually do these trips in Apr/May but one of the guys can't do that time frame next...

    Philippines in July/Aug??

    Hi I would really appreciate some input from the Philippines based diving fraternity as to what the diving is like in the July/Aug period? We are thinking of doing the Visayas area but I do not want to go if the timing is all wrong. Thanks in advance for your help. Lee

    Baani Adventurer & Princess Haleema - Maldives

    Hi John I've been told that it will be quite hot with 'some' rain. May is apparently only the start of the wet season so we can be lucky. Let's face it, who can predict the weather these days anyway! Jan/Feb is meant to be perfect weather but I read a post from someone who was there at...

    Baani Adventurer & Princess Haleema - Maldives

    I agree completely but sometimes there is no choice! For example if you ever dive Sth Africa they only ever use RHIB's. Here in NZ there are also somedive operators who only use them as well. Lee

    Baani Adventurer & Princess Haleema - Maldives

    Thanks for the tip, I'll give that technique a try. Wouldn't work so well for a backward roll off a RHIB though!

    Baani Adventurer & Princess Haleema - Maldives

    So what did you do in these cases? Roll in with the camera or leave it on the boat? Lee

    Baani Adventurer & Princess Haleema - Maldives

    Smartecosse, I'm with you when it comes to night dives, I almost always skip them (prefer to be having a beer) but I will take a note of maayafushi and do that one if I get the chance. Did you do that with Baani or Haleema? Any other 'best of' sites? How were they with camera gear? Any other...
