Hi all,
I've been living in Vietnam for the past 18 months and have been spending most of my holidays diving around SE Asia. So far I've been fortunate enough to visit Komodo, Bali, Sipadan and Malapascua, as well as other trips to Thailand, Mergui Archipelago and, prior to relocating here, South Africa. Mostly fantastic experiences, although also some recent sketchy ones!
I haven't yet dived in Vietnam, so if anyone has any first hand experience here it would be great to hear from you. A lot of what I have read isn't great, however, not everywhere can be beautiful and pristine and it would be great to have something local to try out on a weekend. I'm due to visit the island of Phu Quoc this weekend; hopefully there will be something worth seeing!
I've also recently started to try my hand with photography. I have no prior experience but am enjoying the learning process. I have an Olympus TG5, PT058 housing, Kraken Wide Angle Lens and Sea&Sea YS03 strobe. Any tips would be great!
Also, big fan of muck diving. A weird nudibranch that I haven't seen before would occupy just as much of my time as any shark would...
