Dauin/Apo Island Diving

[pyrodiver]

I need to do a poll...

Trip is getting close and I still don't know which sites are best to go... I have a limited time and not sure to dive all sites.

Please list your must dive sites in Dauin and Apo Island. I like taking photos of small critters. Not much on WA, still waiting for that WA lens.... hmmmm I hope Santa gives me one for Christmas.

Thanks and waiting for your suggestions... Happy Holidays!!!

uuuuyyyy somebody's planning to blow his new year's bonanza on diving!

apo: must-do coconut point... when the current's going... no chance to take small stuff, keep the cam (if at all) ready for 'cudas, jacks and turtles... it's gonna be a wild ride

dauin: the pier... bring lots of memory because i hear it's fantastic for macro

Thank you again everyone for your inputs... Really appreciate it and looking forward to seeing critters you've listed... If I see half of them, I'd be very happy.
