    It's very easy to go to Siquijor from Dumagete. On the way back you will have to have a look at the time sheddule to check if it's possible. Usually, the ferry to Cebu from Siquijor stops at Dumagete: it could be the same one, you'll just have to wake up veeeeeeery early.

    I don't know coral cay resort. But the situation of this hotel seems to be the best for diving.

    A poster at a Dumaguete website pointed out that Tripadvisor only has 2 reports on Coral Cay Resort, both negative. That got me thinking about staying at Kiwi Dive Resort.
    Does anyone have any experience with Coral Cay or Kiwi?

    It looks like I may not have enough time to make a trip to Apo Island from Siquijor. What I really want to know is how the diving at Siquijor compares to Apo Island? And do the dive shops/resorts take divers to all the dive sites around the island or do they just stick close to the dive sites near the resort?

    The manager at Coral Cay Resort said the early morning (6am) Ocean Jet from Cebu to Dumaguete is now cancelled. So it looks like I will have to find another form of transportation.

    Anyone with additional info on resorts, diving situation and transportation will be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers.

    Thanks Roger.

    Do they have a website? I am always weary of going to a resort without having a look at what they look like. Or do you have photos of the resort?

    What are their rates?

    It's not in Dumagete. The pier I dove is a small single pier in the south of Dumagete.
