I'm beginning to think it might be an idea to leave Coron until we're a bit more experienced and do No.2 on the list

Great reply Makhno, thanks. Something i should add is my misses has only done about 40 dives (all last year) and is AOW, i've done about 150 and have the deep water speciality but i haven't done any tec courses would this limit our enjoyment of Coron? The misses also is a bit anti the idea of a...

Starting on 2nd Nov, direct flights start to Manila from London, so for a 2 week break where would you recommend and what time of year? I was think Apo Reef and the Coron Wrecks, any other suggestions? The missus wants to go to Palawan but I've heard the diving is a bit pants. I've dived Bohol...

I take it we'd be able to drive across the border

Hello chaps, after our year tour through Asia and Australia we're gagging to get away and do some more diving. Problem is due to work we can't get away until November. We quite fancy Israel. I've had a look on this forum and sussed that up North is going to be mild and down south might get a...

Matt, can't hope for more than that mate. I was looking at AccuWeather Is it worth taking the effort to get to Apo Island, i've heard good things.... ---------- Post added January 13th, 2013 at 06:23 AM ---------- Okay i think i may have planned rough route... Fly HK to Cebu Cebu to...

Hi Matt Thanks for that, sounds like a plan! I've looked at the weather forcast for the next month and it looks pretty horrible. Do you know if that's actually the case this time of year? When i went to Bohol the weather forcast said much of the same but we had pretty good weather ----------...

So we're supposed to be flying back to the UK from HK on the 25th to end our traveling. We've decided to extend it by a few weeks, fly out of HK next week and head to the Philippines for 21 days for diving and sun So we need somewhere reasonably easy to get to, cheap accommodation and diving...

Hi Quero We've just left Sulawesi, TBH maybe we've been spoilt recently but i dived Bunaken and the Togeans and thought they were pretty average. Although Gonzack at Paradise Resort, Kadidirri was a top bloke and a joy to dive with. Agilis, i know but Plonk is all i can afford these days...

Dove with Dive Komodo today, and will be for the next two days. The dive boat we went out on was good quality, dive brief was good with a nice little white board with diagrams. 3 DM's with 2 divers each, pointed out a lot. All in all a very good experience ---------- Post Merged on October...

On the 8th Jan we'll be landing in HK after 10 months traveling through Asia and Australia, we've decided that we want to fly out of HK ASAP and plonk ourselves somewhere for a couple of months, chill on a beach and scuba dive before heading back to the UK. On this trip we have/ will be diving...

Spent a few days diving with 'Two Fish' dive resort. Really good outfit. Highlight was 7 Manta Rays at Manta Bay, one was Black and they just grooved around us for an hour. No Mola Mola though.

Oooh we might have some of that, just arrived in Gili T, should be heading down to Lombok in just under a week before moving on to Flores, where are you based?

We're heading down to Flores from Lombok on the Perama boat. Then planning to spend a week or so in Labuan Bajo, due to traveling for a year we are somewhat financially limited. Ideally a liveaboard would be the preferred option, is it possible to get last minute deals whilst in Labuan Bajo? If...

I've been speaking to a guy here. Absolute Air Scuba Sdn. Bhd. Quite expensive diving though. 2 wrecks 350MYR. Slight problem is i stacked it today, toes have swelled up and black and blue, can't see me getting a fin on

I thought i'd post this after reading a lot on other sites about how difficult it is to get a 60 day tourist visa I picked mine up in Kota Kinabalu yesterday. I was a little concerned as a couple of weeks ago i came back from Sumatra and used up a 30 day on arrival visa. The process was as...

Tried to get on the 1.30pm ferry today, fully booked so bought a ticket for the 8.00am tomorrow. I haven't contacted any dive centers and only just read your post, damn didn't think of just going from here. Maybe i'll carry on from Brunei if i get there and it proves tricky. Where did you base...

Hi Chaps We're in KK and t be honest a bit bored, hitting Sipidan on the 5th September. We're going to get the ferry to Labaun tomorrow to check out he wreck diving, what's it like, worth the trip? Thanks

I'm from the UK. I looked into Raja Ampat but i don't think our funds will run to that, we're traveling for a year so have to watch the pennies to a certain extent Maybe it would be better to spend longer in Malaysian Borneo and just spend 30 days in Indonesia, although the Visa run into East...

Hi Guys Thanks for the advice. I haven't looked into it but i'm going to see if i can get 60 day visa in KK. Ubud, great we'll check that out. N Sulawesi.....google here i come!!
