Guys, I'm heading to Boracay in May for company trip. Might be able to steal a free and easy day for a dive or two.
Need your advise on the following: 1) Without friend accompanying, normally still ok to go dive alone right? The centre should pair me up with a dive master or buddy correct? 2) Any dive centres to recommend in Boracay? (I'm staying in Station 2 area) 3) Any particular sites to recommend? I'm still a newbie at handling currents so mild ones would be best. 4) Any idea on the rough cost to dive there? Any advise on any of the questions would be much appreciated. Will still do my own research. Thanks! QUOTE(EvanSoon @ Apr 15 2014, 11:31 AM) QUOTE(ericcc @ Apr 15 2014, 12:10 PM) Welcome aboard. It's a whole new Water World out there to explore, have fun, and to learn about. QUOTE(b5n111 @ Apr 15 2014, 11:14 PM) Welcome to the Colorful World... Thanks guys!QUOTE(photopro @ Apr 16 2014, 08:43 PM) Blue ribbon eel - yes Wow this place sounds amazing Tresher shark - yes ( I've only saw once Common tresher bout 4mtr long. Such q beauty) Whale shark - hmm., yes but longgg time ago. Manta - yes (depending on luck) Mola - mola - yes (depending on luck and water temperature) Good viz - yes (normally about 20mtr on a bad day) Eagle ray, school of devil ray (normally 40-100), silvertip shark, friendly titan triggerfish, so many types of trigger fish, school of giant trevally, school of giant barracuda, many types of eel, super huge Napoleon wrasse (as big as Myvi, you can find this at Canyon dive site but depending on your luck also la), oh! Last fwbruary I saw 4 hammerhead at Pantee Peunateung for 3 consequences day. And many many more type of underwater life la. Pulau Weh is somewhere I feel like home. And its cheap there.

Oh yea they will pair you with a diver there or a dm. your not the only 1 scared of TT. Someone was so scared he "flew" through the water like a flash of light when he saw 1. |

Hahahaha but I guess it's because of few people warning me about this fish even before I touch the water. Pool 1 for confined water already learnt the sign for triggerfish. you can tell the DC that you are worried about currents and they will give you the dives sites suitable.

QUOTE(ukiya @ Apr 17 2014, 06:20 PM) Still deciding... Can only fit in two (or three max) but from what I've read online the sites are just okay. You going with FreeWilly? Taht's the one with best reviews so far. QUOTE(photopro @ Apr 18 2014, 12:04 AM) Most probably the reason of why they are too friendly to be true is because their nest is soo deep.

Hi all, currently I'm contemplating on whether should I go for the diving certification (Beginner) as I'll be going to Gili Island soon and my friend kept persuade me to learn with him. My main concern is that I really wanted to try diving and at the same time I don't think I'll be frequent diver. And I'm wondering if there's any other additional charge besides the one I paid to get the certificate. These additional charges are like the additional necessary cost that I have to pay in order to dive like "Do I need to buy equipments for my diving?", "Will they charge a huge amount to dive each time at a certain site?(Entry fee) And if yes how much would that be?" and etc.
Another constraint also is that I'm short-sightedness and I've read the FAQ and there's prescription mask. But I don't think I will be a frequent diver and I think it is not worth it for me to get one for myself, I was wondering will diving centre have such items to be rented as well. Thanks =D This post has been edited by -Max91-: Apr 18 2014, 09:25 PM |
