Well I have a kind of unique situation. My wife and I are going to Vietnam in November of this year. We are doing a 11 day motorcycle trip around north Vietnam beginning November 30th. But due to when thanksgiving falls we will be leaving the states on Nov 17th . So we have 10 days plus or minus on the front of our trip to get a dive trip in.
The question we are struggling with is where to go. We are flying into Hanoi on the night of the 18th and will depart from there for diving. We are looking at Bali, PI or Thailand. We obtained our OW in Nha Trang last November and are not that interested in diving in Vietnam again.
Pricing wise flying from Hanoi to Bali, Manila or Phuket are all comparable. Not sure which would be the best bang for our buck. I have read good things about them all and it sounds like Bali may have an edge for quality of coral and sea life.
I guess a little about my wife and myself, we are new divers with 22 dives each including our open water dives. As I mentioned above we got our OW in Vietnam and our most recent trip and first real diving trip was to Roatan this past March. So we are are looking for a good place to improve our diving skills, we have done a bit of drift diving in a mild current, swim thrus and both have our deep water cert. Like to see more sea life and coral and just learn more.
Bit long winded here, but just not sure where to go.
Thanks in advance
