Let's get to know the Philippine paradise divers

[craborn]

Man if anyone wants to have a great time diving, singing and laughing the Philippines is the place. A few years ago I spent three weeks on Siquijor Island. WOW... The waters were outstanding and the people were wonderfully nice and fun to be around.I played every afternoon with the kids on the beach. Truly a great place!!!!!!

Hi everyone!

I'm Gerry Reyes and just passing through your e-group. Chip told me about this nice place. We will be going to Verde Island with me for almost a week to do some volunteer work for the community: survey of mooring sites, monitoring for crown of thorns starfish infestation (if there are), diver training for 12 residents from the six barangays who are helping out in the conservation project of Conservation International (CI) and First Philippine Conservation, Inc. (FPCI). This means we both will be diving in the 2 MPAs.

Looking forward to lurking and learning around here. Best regards to you all!
