Just to reiterate mucksavage - the weather here in the Visayas (Dauin area) last Jan was very weird, lots of rain when it shoud have been sunny and then this low season, when it should have rained, the vis was great and the weather hot (apart from 1 or 2 weeks). So quite unpredictable, but I...
Hi Todd,
(1) I agree, 12 days is quite short, so I wouldn't try and do too much during that time. Malapascua, and the Dauin coast (mix of corals and muck diving - ferry or flight from Cebu) and Apo Island (corals and fish and easily accessible from Dauin....).
