Ok will prepare one tonight

Generally my week goes like...

Wednesday - Check weather forecast. Discuss dive plan with buddy or find a club to dive with.

Friday/Saturday/Sunday (depending which day works best) - Pack up, drive out, get gas fill, gear up, dive, drive back, unpack, wash gear. This took 8 hours in total today.

Conditions - I'm better at reading the weather forecast (rain/wind/swell/tide) now... when I first came I got shaken up by rough shore conditions... still have the scars from it lol. Water can be surgy too in the shallows. However, the good thing is that there's usually little/no current.

Viz - been bad-to-medium. I consider every dive a torchlight dive, it's just easier to spot stuff and locate your buddy. Viz is supposed to be better in winter, but the water is colder too.

Temperature - Today's water was 19C, and air 22C. With my gear I can do one dive comfortably. I get a lot colder on my second dive.

Gear - since arriving here I bought a wetsuit, weights, tank, first stage reg, fins, and hood. Basically, thicker and heavier versions of what I had before.

Marine life - A lot of creatures here are different from the ones I see in Southeast Asia, so it's fun finding new stuff all the time. A lot of sea weed, sponges, and some soft coral. I'll try to compile some in the video.

This weekend free or not?

Yea, maybe I go to your place before that also. Got frogskin to pass over.

Like that ah. Wait June lor.

Suggest June 4th. Agong's birthday.
Eww

Me not instructor
To inhale and exhale WAHAHAHA

Hi all, just saw this thread...I am quite new to diving...did maybe like 10 dives? But I just got my Aow last month...hope to meet u all soon!!

Flora brapa dive already?

I was there, no whaleshark oso. Maybe water not 'green' enough to attract them yet
Hi bro and welcome. How long a span were those 10 dives done in? Any aspirations for future diving? Inb4 aspirating salt water
Hahaha

Tenggol was pretty impressive. Been there twice before, first time was magic, second time in Sept2014 was let down by bad viz. This time all is OK, less current, good viz of 20m.

Corals in good shape. But... in places like Coral Garden, lots and lots of coral, but the fish were missing. Imagine anemones without clownfish. I can only deduce that loads of illegal fishing going on. sadly.

Hi all, wanna ask...is Bali a nice place to dive? Planning to go to Tulamben in July...is it suitable for beginners?

Wat!! Bali not recommended for newbies? Oh no.....

Guys, please inform me if you have requested to join FB group.

Lol bruhh
Hi welcome. How was diving again after a year of abstinence?

By the way I'm not sure the 'nudis' you're referring to are the same nudis that we know of. Lol

Ignore imran, he a bit dirty minded so the nudis is not his nudis.
Tenggol 101 is base in Dungun 1 right?

These was in Tenggol, abit out of focus too.  but much better than those taken in Tioman.
Will try again for my next diving trip... hopefully soon

Happy friday guys, can any of you guys recommend a place to get a PADI Open Water licence thats affordable? I'm planning to take it up alone since either no friends willing to follow or most of them have took their licence already.
