Sorry for the bad photo. I saw this nudi in Bohol Philippines recently. I was about sixty feet deep and the nudi is probably an inch to an inch and half long. I have over a hundred dives here over the past six months and this is the only one that I have seen. Thanks for any help.

Shot this three days ago in the Philippines. I was in about 60 feet of water. Fish is approximately two and half to three feet long. Color was silver/gray. When I saw it live, I thought Dorado, but tail looks wrong in this pic. DM was not sure what it was. Thanks for any help.

After a lot of price checking and research I decided to book with Blue Mango Resort near boat station three. Excellent decision. That end of the beach is very quiet compared to stations one and two. Very family friendly atmosphere and hospitality from the entire staff of the Blue Mango. The dive...

Any one know where I can find a good instructor that can teach in Tagalog? Any agency is fine, and it's a huge bonus if they teach with in one hour from any of the airports on the islands. Thank you.

Hello PPD, I am doing ten days in Puerto Galera in late April and I will have ten days to fill in early May in Zamboanga. I have been searching and not found much in the area, and I am not too sure how safe it is for a white boy (puti cano) to be out and about alone in the area. I have...

The best tips I have to offer for any trip to Moalboal after having spent ten days there with my family diving with Savedra Dive Center and Beach Resort. 1. Getting there can be a bit difficult. The roads aren’t the best in places and clogged to the gills with every conceivable type of...

I am in the middle of a dive holiday in the Philippines. I went for a dive today, and after descending to 10 meters my nemo wide beeped once then got blurry, then flooded. I have not changed the battery or done anything else to it. It was working fine up until now. I searched the Mares...
