    Are Sardines still around Pescardor in Moalboal?

    Any updates on the sardines? I have a trip planned to Malapascua and am thinking of cutting it short by a few days and heading to moalboal. Anybody have recommendations on where to stay? How long is the ride from Maya to Moalboal, it must be at least 4 or 5 hours?

    List of dive destinations to not go to...

    You have to find yourself a decent travel agent, because some of these flight prices are ridiculous. There are very few places on this planet it takes more than 2000usd to get to. Even PNG can be done for around 2,000usd from the east coast.

    Manta or sharks right now in the Baa area? (MV Monsoon)

    I dove from a resort in Baa atoll, it was really disappointing. I have been meaning to get back to the maldives and do a liveaboard to really see what the Maldives has to offer. I did my AOW course there and several other fun dives, but never saw 1 shark. We were lucky to see one manta...

    Recommendations for Puerto Galera?

    I have never been to PG, but i have heard good things about it. The impression i get, that its good diving, thats convenient as its a couple hours by car and a ferry ride away. No need for domestic flights or long ferry rides. If I was going to make the trip all the way from the states for...

    How does Anilao rate..?

    I just got back from Anilao. We stayed at Club O and while the accommodations where not quite the standard I was used to, everything else was fantastic. The food was quite good, we basically had the resort to ourselves and anything we needed was taken care of quickly. Our guide, Peri, was...

    Layang Layang May 2013

    If you do go to palau count me in for a trip for sure. If i may through another idea out there, how about Tubattaha (not sure if that is the correct spelling)? I believe its a similar season to Layang Layang also. It would probably work out well business wise as most of the good boats are...

    Layang Layang May 2013

    Hey Mike, Thanks again for a great time during the trip. I dont meant to say the diving was poor, just not what I expected. We did see hammers twice, we saw the thresher shark twice on one dive and there were always schools of jacks or barracudas. Its just not quite what I envisioned. I had...

    Layang Layang May 2013

    I was very excited to get back out diving. Due to some health problems, I was not able to dive since my last trip to Bali and Komodo last September. I had already planned a trip to Anilao in June for a few days, but when the chance came up to join my friends for a liveaboard to Layang Layang...

    Dive quality - off Sabah

    we dove the rice bowl wreck outside Kota Kinabalu on the way back from a recent layang layang liveaboard and it was one of the worst dives i have ever seen. The wreck itself was in good formation and did have a fair amount of fish, but there was a lot of dead fish around from a recent dynamite...

    Best weather time frame for Layang Layang?

    Hopefully we are lucky next week. Threshers are interesting to look at, but i have seen those already. A big school of hammerheads would be perfect.

    What's on your diving bucket list?

    I think its quite odd that so many people have mentioned south africa for great whites, I would think Guadalupe is the best place to see great whites (i have never been to either though), much warmer water with much better visibility. I had made a bucket list a few years back and accomplished...

    Dumb Question scubapro cam bands

    thanks, I feel a lot better now. I had a feeling that was the case, but got a little concerned when leisure pro told me differently.

    Dumb Question scubapro cam bands

    I recently bought a scubapro tek pure complete system and i just received it the other day and i have a question about the cam bands. When I go to close the cam (no tank being used) the cam will not close fully (it closes but will not stay in place) so if i pull it flips opens. I am assuming...

    Real fat guy

    This thread could not have explained my situation any more closely (although i am a little shorter). I just bought the setup shown (from leisure pro also), as I am am also a real fat guy. I have had a sherwood avis BCD for about two years now and while I was happy with everything, it never...
