Where to stay and dive in Balicasag sep 8-12

[joebubbles]

Since you are going for a short period of time during slow season, there is a good possibility that you may not get a boat to cabilao, unless you can round up your friends to go. The alternative is to hop on a scooter to mocpoc and dive with one of the local dive shops. For example, Polaris. Did this twice while staying in Alona and it worked out well. The day trip to Cabilao was definately worthwhile. See attached videos

I was diving Balicasag last weekend with Genesis Divers. They were fantastic!! I also stayed above the diveshop in Peter's Place - a very simple but beautiful room (#6 with 2 double beds) for 700pesos - shared bathroom. The diving was spectacular; especially a school of Jacks at BlackForest!! Big gropers, lots of moray eels, nudi's and a couple of green turtles. The other magical site was Cathedral where we saw a truly special white frog fish on the move! Genesis have a website: Dive the Philippines with Genesis Divers|Alona Beach|Panglao Island|Bohol You can contact them about accommodation choices -there are other more expensive places with more facilities, but I really liked the homely and friendly atmosphere and simplicity of Peter's PLace.
