Tech diving around El Nido and Coron

[GF99/99]

So sound like D Divers is really the only option for Coron, is there anything on the El Nido side?

Also I only have 10 days, what area would you suggest is the best to spend my time in Coron or El Nido?

Is anybody even blending nitrox in Coron?

I dont know that is why I am trying to get some more info on tech diving in Coron. Also I looked up D Divers and looks like there kind of off the beaten path and you have to stay at there resort. Does anyone know if any of the other shops are tech dive friendly?

I have friends who did dives there a few years back. They took modular valves for sidemount and just used O2 as a single deco gas. Straight O2 was actually cheaper than nitrox. The shop they used was not a "tech" shop. I have no idea what the state of tech diving in Coron is now. I also want to go back there and dive those wrecks properly.

Try rocksteady, they seemed to be the only other tech friendly one when I was looking. Their emails were helpful too.

I send an email to Rocksteady (now Reggea Dive Center) last year and the answer was that they don't do tech diving anymore.

There is also Sangat Island Dive Technical - Sangat Island Dive Resort's
I don't know anything about them but a fellow diver talk good about them
