Anybody on the island that knows water temp?

Good Viz yesterday, this is a screenshot of a flyover video

Thank You, that's a very aloof looking turtle there.

@BrackaFish Nice Pics. I will be there next week, what kind of water temps are you seeing?

Did it breathe ok at shallower depths on the way down? Is it possible your tank wasn’t fully open, sounds like that may be it?

With a pony though?

I did not, it was never even mentioned as a possibility. I was however blessed with a whaleshark that swam under our boat in Dumaguete just as we were splashing. I didn't mean I needed all those elements in one place, I those are just some things I would look for. Malapascua has come up in...

So far I have been twice to the standard Atlantis resort itinerary of a stay in PG and then transfer to Dauin. I think other than APO island I have seen enough muck at this point and can cross Dumaguete off the list. I would welcome suggestions on pretty reefs, large animals, wrecks.

Is anyone else hesitant to book too far out in fear of a repeat of 2020? I know I am not booking anything crazy expensive, especially in places that locked down hard during the pandemic. Going to Cayman Brac in February which looks safe and Carnival in Cozumel but I am leery of booking another...

I had good luck for the most part. Atlantis in PHI just moved us to this spring without issue although Philippine air upcharged us, not sure if it was them though or the LDS that put it together. Our Guadalupe shark trip obviously was cancelled and never to be rescheduled. Initially I thought...

OMG, how are you not dead yet! 😄

I agree, it is much lighter than the ball type swivel and it takes care of the maintenance issue, just throw it out at an interval that makes you comfortable and put a new one on.

Price?

Every single time...

Depends on the season and the website you book on, I have seen anything from 70-130. Also if you end up going to Cozumel contrary to a lot of others advice, I find renting a scooter a great way to see the island if you are comfortable on a motorcycle.

What doors are those? And what’s the hurry? It’s not a race. Also to OP, Barracuda is a decent enough place, food close, and a pier onsite for pickup.

I agree, just go to Cozumel, relax, dive, work on getting perfect buoyancy and have fun. You will go to the same sites as you would with AOW and you can get more comfortable for when you eventually complete AOW. I started my AOW on my very first salt water dive, the first dive after OW. I can...

Just use a CC and pay in pesos, let them do the exchange rate calculation for you.
