So you don't disagree since we're not talking of the same perspective. I agree there could be lots of fish in FP, but what I am pointing is that there are also lots of fish in Sipadan plus macro dives you can't get in FP.Well I disagree with you...I’m not talking about Bio diversity and Allen’s studies in FP. I am talking about the schools of fish bigger stuff of course. I found far superior than I saw in Sipadan!
Ok, good for you.I found far superior in Bangka
Absolutely.What? Kadavu and the Astrolabe reef about corals?….Now that is funny….
Ok whenever I come across these posts, Palau or R4, I'll give you the link.have Google translate cannot find anything about Palau if you can give me that direct link would be appreciated and as you know you can be on a LOB in RA and if they do not know where to dive….it is a waste of time
Oh well, I think R4 needs some competition to deflate incredibly steep prices : just imagine if I wanted to go to "budget" Kri with my non diving wife and daughter, it would cost me 600$ per night to enjoy a shared bathroom ...(an additional 500$ per night to have the luxury of a private toilet at Sorido).But I am happy you like Sipadan and perhaps more people will go there to keep the rising costs down in Palau or select spots of Indo.
No worries. I don't think there any harm done in the discussion, I respect travelnsj opinions but I don't have the same views.Not going to jump into the middle of this for fear of my life
Not saying I liked Kadavu.Yes I did dive the Naigoro passage...still yawning...LOL...Did not see excellent soft corals until I got to the Bligh waters in Fiji.
Like I wrote previously I am not so well off that I could spend more than 1100$ per night in any R4 resort, Sorido or whatever.but my suggestion is go to RA stay at Sorido in the Papua area of RA (one of Allan's favorite spots to dive) and go to Palau. Then I will lend credence to your opinion on Sipadan.
No worries. I don't think there any harm done in the discussion, I respect travelnsj opinions but I don't have the same views.
Just joking. It's actually been a great thread to follow ... far more interesting than the weekly (daily?), "This is my first trip to Bali. Where should I dive?"
