    Hi,
    I think there are no diving events, only pure diving. i just went there last sat & sunday. the sea is calm but cold 25deg.. no current ( half moon kasi).
    dive & trek not much fish activity, i only saw a few medium size fishes, around 2-3 kls.The resident barracuda is still there. Mainit point has not much fish activity, bec. of no current. though the large Grouper is still there at around 90 ft.
    twin rocks has still their big population of Batfish triggerfish and snapper and sweetlips.
    happy diving.

    Will be going to adjacent resort to dive n trek. so far no activities except for some deco dive to search for stainless steel ladder. but more for the deco dive than the recovery of the ladder. :o)

    as Gaudencio says it is COLD !!! or rather, low temperature.

    Planet dive last weekend

    Hi, I was at planet dive this weekend - had a great time. although I only did 2 dives (which I regretted!) - chickened out on the other dives since it was too cold for me!!! Oh well. First two dives for the year were so-so, not much fish last weekend, but I'm planning a trip to GenSan two weeks from now (hi Paul P - see you soon!), and I'm hoping to make up for lost dive time there!

    Well, we can get as much dives as your schedule will allow. Water temp here is 82. How close is that to 25? Have to get me a converter for my pda.

    Current is always the same....unpredictable. Let me know your final schedule Scubababe.

    Paolo, we are working on a website and I hope to answer your questions there. I've been rather busy so I apologize for the looooooooong delay.

    Anyone going tubataha this year?

    Hi,
    Yes I did notice that the Stella Maris was going back & forth , Ikaw pala iyon. Me and my buddies stayed at Dars Padilla 's private resort.
    We are palnning to go again to Anilao this weekend. " Pa pa - condition". Preparing myself for Palawan and Puerto Galera in the coming days.
    Is'nt it I read before that you are going to give a write up about Scubaworld new resort at Dumagete?
