16 days in Cebu on February next year, where should I go for diving?

[eagerbeaver]

Also 2 weeks are long enough, I might visit other different location/island near Cebu.
Where should I go?

Certainly 2 weeks is plenty of time to visit 2 locations. Malapascua and Dumaguete are 2 favorites for a lot of people, offering you a great selection of diving. Let me know if you need more info about Malapascua, I'll be happy to help you set up a trip and give can give you advice on both locations as I've lived in both for several years.

I searched this forums and I found Dumaguete is popular destination as well, but not much information.
Do you recommend?

I highly recommend you stay with Liquid in Dauin(Dumaguete) they'll organise everything for you and you'll have great diving and a great time.

I like underwater photography, don't care about beautiful sandy beaches.
I rather like reasonable accommodation but great dive experience.

Great diving is no problem and you'll get the beautiful sandy beach even if you don't care!

I used the RX100 and made this video for highlights for my trip to Malapascua in Oct.

Hello Limbo,
Thank you for your post.
I got a e-mail form Andrea @ thresher shark divers.
So stay there for a week, then...South Leyte maybe.
Anyway, it's always fun to make a holiday plan.

Hi Albatross911,
That's a great video and music too.
Do you use light always? or flash too?

Hi Matt_reed,

I was almost decided to South Leyte for second location (because of Whale shark).
But Dumaguete still very interesting...
But I can go there with Bohol/Apo island trip...this might be next next plan.
So many place to dive, I love this country.

Love to move and start new life one day before too old
