I'm planning a short dive trip during a week school holiday end of May 2009.
We are four, my self, wife and daughter are certified divers + my younger daughter 9 years old, not certified yet but she has logged approx. 50 ocean bubble makers.
We're looking for nice dive destination, good coral, easy diving, love muck diving too, wall drift diving is okay but no fierce current; depth within limitation of Jr. OW; must have shallow water for ocean bubble maker.
We have been in Bunaken, Sipadan, mabul, Lembeh, Puerto Galera, Tulamben, Menjangan - so expect to have comparable dive sites. No need luxury resort; don't like night life; A/C is nice to have but not a must as long as diving is good - important: the resort must be safety oriented, have smaller tank and good instructor for ocean bubble maker. Preferable small / not too crowded resort with house reef suitable for night diving and close to the dive sites - don't like more than 1 hour boat trip.
Currently I am considering Tioman, Perhentian, Tenggol and Redang; but having read few reports seem will drop tioman from the list.
Much appreciate for any comment, suggestion and inputs regarding diving in above destinations including recommended dive resorts.
Thanks in advance
