Who's going for the meetup? Didn't check the thread for quite some time.

If tioman, start on the drinks. If perhentian, enjoy the view, snack by the beach, if redang etc etc etc


Sorry could not make it to join you guys last friday. Something came up.

You're just not used to it. I dont have my own BCD yet, but i've tried both. Better buoyancy control with the wing type, but almost impossible to stay vertical. But experienced people can still do it no problem.

When's the next TT?

Putra going blue hole. Ayam jelly.

I'll be in Tioman too! Diving with Diver's Cove on Paya.

Suddenly this thread become so active.

Yesterday went over to Diver's Den to "help my buddy check out fins" ended up bought 2 pairs of Cressi Reaction. One for my buddy, one for my own "spare"

Yeah. A few from this thread. Tioman so early in the season the ferry is the only problem. Earliest is 2pm

And yes guys, the Rm139 ones. I like the Rondine, but no more size for me.

ADEX also cannot find Cressi Fins for Rm139 lo...

Just arrived home from Tioman. Did 6 dives over 2 days. Did Renggis, Soyak and White Sands on the first day and Golden Reef, Tiger Reef and Labas on the 2nd day. Viz was 15m throughout! Awesome altho it rained on the first day. We did 2 dives in the morning and ascended in rain on the 2nd dive. Did the house reef white sands also ascended in rain. Nothing special but there were a lot of fishes. One of my best trips to Tioman to date.

Dove with Diver's Cove in Paya. Was staying at Tioman Paya Resort. Unfortunately, something bad happened when we were at Tioman Paya Resort. Its highly not recommended that you stay there. On Day 2 of our stay, after the dives, it was raining heavily. So we hiked back up to the resort to grab some chow. Not great food also, but for convenience sake we decided to eat there.

The rain and wind was like crazy. So we went to the resort cafe and sat down on a table that has already been setup with plates and bowls and what not. The other tables was wet. A lady waitress came over and told us off rudely that the table was reserved for dinner. (At that time it was 12pm in the afternoon) One of my buddy then tried to reason with her, saying that the other tables were wet and the wind was blowing still at that time. He insisted that we use that table. Again she rudely refused. It then translated into us sitting on a wet table with my buddy complaining to us in mandarin. The usual, wtfs why like that bla bla bla service bad bla bla bla.

Fast forward to the last night we were there. After hanging at the dive center we decided to grab a few drinks on the beach. A group of local boys came. Hooliganing around us, as usual we though they were drunk. Then they started to threaten and verbally abuse us for being kurang ajar, bla bla bla. And the best part is 2 of them are the resort staff. I would assume that they were drunk. We didnt even know whats up with them until they mentioned that we were "rude" to one of their sisters in the resort. Keep threatening to whack us up and rape the girls in my group. Saying that the ladies wear sexy la. They geram la. That time we were not even pissed just found it funny that a bunch of scrawny kids were screaming profanities and threats at a bunch of body builders and MMA fellas. After they got bored with screaming and us not responding to them, they left us alone with threats of "kasi pecah muka lu bila lu balik hotel"

In the end nothing bad happened. But still a crappy overall experience. Gonna call up the local KL resort office to lodge a complaint. And just as nice, one of our buddies in the group is a lawyer, so he's planning to send in a legal letter just for the lulz. Lets see what happens and i'll update here.

One of my friends rented an underwater camera. But the photos turned out quite crappy. Will post some of it soon.

Sneak peak coz sitting in a mega jam.

Would love to join the group, dive or teh tarik included. Add me up, but do say you're from Lyn diver thread.

The sea last weekend was as calm as a lake. Hahahah

Piranha now spotted. Buaya darat a lot.

Some shots from Labas

sarcasm spotted. Show with S95 and casing. Cost us Rm100/day.

i still claim the photos are ugly coz its shot with a Canon. Nothing wrong with skills.

Labas is on the shallow side. About 12m.

Dunno le. A bunch of rocks in the middle of the sea la. Can do swim throughs. Start dives at one side of the island, swim through the island and come up on the other side.

Any cute single ladies in your dive group?
