Just back from Moalboal and Malapascua. In Moalboal no single muckdivesite done. We have done 2 times Pescador Island (the side with most current is really good, the other is average, that is the side most divers do with the 'caves'. We have further done the sardines and another wall with a very big turtle.
No muckdiving.
And we have seen the mandarin fish in Moalboal.
Then we went to Oslob (whalesharks) and Sumilon Island (did there 2 drift dives), all no muckdiving.
From Oslob to Malapascua and we have done the tresher sharks, and also Gato Island. Gato Island was the best, we have seen a lot of nudies, but they were not in the sand, but in the tunnel. And saw whitetip reefsharks.
The local divesites where most times more or less sand diving, no black sand, but sand. Have seen on 2 dives the mandarin fish again. The nightdives are for all divecenters most done on 'Evo Reef', which is an artificial reef for a big part. There we saw 6 different frogfish in 1 dive.
The tigershark divesite on Malapascua is more than boring. They do that after the site for the treshers, but there are no tigersharks and it is bad viz and only sand. That was a very dissapointing dive. We did 2 dives with the treshers and that was very nice. The first dive we saw more than the second dive. The treshers came on the first dive so shallow that even snorklers could have seen them. But on the second dive they were around 16m depth.
