I just got back from a trip to the Perhentians and Redang Islands in Malaysia. I was on Redang 2 years ago and had great conditions. Excellent vis and lots of marine life. This time, all but 2 dives were write-offs as far as visibility. Some of my dives had vis as poor as 4-5m. What's going on?
The dm said there was a typhoon in the philippines and then she said someting about mars being the closest it's been to earth in 60,000 years. I don't know about all of that but the vis was suckier than a sucky suck suck. She said they have been experiencing conditions like this for several weeks now and they are all very disappointed there.
I headed to the Perhentians where the vis turned out to be better but there were still some dives where it was quite bad. Strange condidions. I wonder if this is affecting dives in Tioman, Ko Tao or even further away.
