This was a one day three tank dive trip to Siquijor Island with Seaquest Dive Center by banca boat from Alona Beach.
We dove the East side of the island as it is closest to Alona Beach.
The majority of Siquijor's dive sites are on the West side of the island and are too far for the one day trip from Alona Beach.

Dive 1 - Daquit Shoal
GPS: N09 15.587 / E123 41.327

Dive 2 - Tulapus Sanctuary
GPS: N09 17.255 / E123 38.616
The crosses are an apparent attempt to rejuvenate the reef in this area.
IMO this is the least interesting dive site of the three we dove as there is very little on it.

Dive3 - Tulapus Sanctuary (different area than dive 2)
GPS: N09 18.142 / E123 37.329
This by far was the best of the three sites. It had quite a variety of nudibranchs on it.

Great shots! I really like the two shrimp shots. Thanks!
 
Alright Gilligan - I'm convinced you spend your days elbow deep in reef tanks snapping photos.

Always love your pictures, keep'em up.

On a similar note, could you tell us what lenses you used in these?

I only use the G10 as is, no add on lenses. The rest is cropping and adjusting in PS.
 
Nice set. Second the motion on the shrimp. Nice variety of nudis. Looks like some good diving.
 
Thanks for the wide angle as it shows a small pic of what the area underwater looks like. Excellent shots, thanks for the view.
