Hi,
I'm on an overland 'round the world' trip at the moment, currently in Thailand and continuing into Malaysia & Indonesia, then Australia. I'd like to do some diving wherever possible (budget permitting). I googled about diving in Malaysia and Indonesia, but had problems finding prices for dives & rental equipment.
Could someone give me a pointer about this? (I will stay in budget accomodation wherever possible, so am not interested in diving resorts unless it's unavoidable).
-What's the average cost of, say, a 2-3 dive daytrip in Malaysia / Indonesia? (kind of like diving from Phuket is between 2700 and 3500 baht)?
-What's the cost of rental equipment in those places?
-Is it possible to rent an underwater housing for a Canon 5D somewhere? Or is this kind of equipment too specialized?
I'm not too bothered about 'which dive centre to go'. Just a rough indicator about costs would be much appreciated!
Thanks a lot!
