Greetings All, It's been some time since my last post but I know I can get some good feedback from my fellow divers.
Planning a trip to the Philippines in November of this year. I've been on several trips there and have always dove Puerto Galera. I want to try something else. I'm considering, from a fellow diver I met in PG, Alona Beach. But as I research it I get the feeling it has become a very crowded place, lots of foreigners. Most of the beach side hotels are fairly expensive, by my standards. Could someone tell me their opinion of Alona and is the diving worth the hustle and bustle?
Another place I'm looking at is Dauin in Negros Oriental. This place looks much less traveled and seems a quiet place. The hotels are fairly pricy but seem decent. From what I read the diving is good with App Island being a premium site.
Thanks to all for your time.
Good Dives, Seaflea.
