I've read so many reviews about these 3. All seem to be decent and I can't go wrong with any of them.
But a professional diver today told me personally, and I quote here:
"It is not only gold and glitter that counts, but you will need to chose what you are comfortable with. Exotic has several dive centers in the Philippines and almost exclusively compete on price. When I was there last, many of the divers left as they were complaining about bad tasting air and other stories on cutting corners reducing quality and safety. I dont know this is still the case, and things have changed guess you will have to find out !"
That sounds like a really serious allegation, which is especially important as there's no doctors, recompression chambers on the island. It's weird that I've not read any reviews online slightly indicating any of those before about Exotic.
I however managed to find an article today about a PADI instructor from Oslo died during a technical fun dive while on holiday at Exotic. But it didn't seem Exotic was found responsible for his death.
Anyway, exotic is really tempting as they offer really competitive rates, very flexible, and so far is the most accommodating to my needs. They don't even require me to make deposit!
Between TSD and Evolution Diving, their offers are pretty much similar. TSD has a claim on the website that they've recently discover a new site to see thresher sharks with very high chance of seeing them. Since I chose to go to Malapascua over other places just because of the chance to see the thresher sharks there, TSD's claim really got my attention!
Any inputs from those who've been, worked, lived there are all very much appreciated! :kiss2:
Thanks
