ScubaBoard SURGE Central 2024 Philippines

[cardzard]

We love your enthusiasm, Kristen, but I hope all would wait to get a spot before booking airfare. We only have a set number of rooms. Last time we went to the Atlantis Resorts this event sold out in a matter of hours. I am NOT saying that will happen this time but it could.

For those that have never been diving in PG this video has lots of good information.

I 'm totally new on these "SB Surge" trips.... and am most definitely interested in this trip.... So just curious.... Is Roxanne the official Scuba Board contact and organizer for this trip.? Basically..... who exactly should I be talking to about confirmation and logistics for this trip? If it's Roxanne.....then that's great! Thanks in advance!

Does anyone know if these operators allow Certified SOLO divers to dive SOLO?

Atlantis as a Padi/SSI dive shop does recognize the SOLO diver certification.
However all Crew Members on the trip will be diving in groups of 6.
Crew Members will be grouped by experience level or requests to be grouped with their friends.

Thanks much for the info re: instabuddying!
Also another question: I see that equipment rental is not included in the price, but it's not listed as an add-on. Does this mean that there is no equipment rental available at the resort, or just that it needs to be worked out with the resort separately?
