Just returned from an awesome dive trip in FP and thought someone may appreciate a bit of info! We flew into Tahiti from Europe via LA with Air New Zealand / Air Tahiti Nui. We bought an inter-island flight pass, which gives you +5kg allowance if you show your diving certs. Very handy! We...

I booked a 6 day LOB trip on the Infiniti boat, with the planned schedule Malapascua and Leyte. The hope was to see the thresher sharks on Malapascua and whale sharks in Leyte. Well... that was the plan. We boarded in Cebu Mactan yacht club which is a 5 or 10 trip from the airport and were...

I had been looking for somewhere relatively easy to get to from Moalboal and relatively easy to get back to Cebu from, as I had a few days to fill on my trip. Eventually I kind of just picked somewhere randomly on the map and came up with Cabilao island. I had no idea what to expect, other than...

Having been given much advice here on ScubaBoard that I was not to miss Apo Reef, I made sure to get it on my plan. I was looking for a way to dive on Apo Reef without taking an expensive liveaboard and I came across Apo Reef Club. I’m so glad I did!! Michael, the owner is Swiss and set up Apo...

Having dived with Easy Diving in Sipalay and also done their Sipalay - Moalboal Safari, I was very impressed with their professional operations and super friendly team. So it was a obvious choice to dive with Easy Diving in Coron too. The team in Coron organised my accommodation in the hotel...

Having received some very good advice here on ScubaBoard, I decided to start my trip in the Philippines with a few days at Easy Diving resort in Sipalay and then join their six day dive safari from Sipalay to Moalboal, which Easy does in partnership with Savedra Dive Shop in Moalboal. So I’ll...

Hi fellow Scubaboarders! Im flying to Cebu in December for just over 2 weeks. I'm currently considering doing 2 different trips on Infiniti liveaboard (Visays and Bohol, Malapascua and Leyte). However the trips are 6 nights with only 4 days diving, which makes them pretty expensive - though...

Am thinking to go at end of March and was wondering if there is any feedback / info on the trips around the Hallaniyat islands at that time of year. The itinerary says likely to see Humpbacks at that time. Thanks for any info you may have.

For anyone looking for an off the beaten track, challenging dive spot, this could be it! Belongas Bay is in the south of Lombok and is home to two advanced dive sites, The Magnet and Cathedral. Both sites provide exciting and challenging diving at dive sites where the sighting of pelagic life...

Hi, Im looking at diving Djibouti in December. Seems its whale shark season. Wondering if anyone has dived there and know if you are guaranteed to see whale sharks. Also wondering what the boat is like and if the crew are safety conscious. Also, as its in the gulf of aiden if its a bit...

Hi Divers! I have a few months of paid leave and thought I would use it wisely... by trying to dive all the great locations in the South Pacific! So, I'm hoping you guys may have some good ideas on how best to organise this in the most effective and cost efficient way. I've been looking at...

I love to read trip reports on Scubaboard, so here is a review on my recent trip to Scuba Junkie, Mabul island resort and Sipadan, which I hope is interesting and useful for some planning on going there. We had booked our trip many months in advance to ensure we got the accommodation we wanted...

Hi all, am going to take a trip to Moz then SA in December. I want to make my way to Aliwal Shoals. I heard also Protea Banks is not to be missed. Are they close enough to each other to stay in one location and dive both places? How best to get ether from Durban? Is it worthwhile to do both...

Hi all! am thinking about doing a liveaboard in the Maldives over Xmas new year. I heard the weather could be very changeable though, so not sure if it is better to postpone til a different time. If I do go, would it be better to do a north tour or a south tour? Is it the season for whale sharks...

Just returned from an amazing trip to the Socorro islands, knowing that I will go back as soon as possible. I LOVED it! We didn't have great weather conditions (very windy, squall at Roca Partida etc), which meant we were somewhat limited in the dive sites. Also the lack of sun was a shame...

Hi, I had a lot of help from Scubaboarders for my Baja trip, so paying back with an update of my travels! After much research and with much help from kind people, I realized in Baja there is no real way to get around without a car. Everywhere else in Mexico you can take buses and collectivos...
