Hahahah evansoon

You can dive without SPG if you are confident your transmitter won't fail on you.

Most will have a pony gauge hook up as a backup if they don't want a bulky SPG.

Nah, have not known of any DC not allowing it.

If I recall correctly, 812799 doesn't dive with a SPG as he has a transmitter already.

I personally prefer to have SPG attached. On one trip, my dive comp battery suddenly kong. On another trip, my transmitter battery kong. So rather be safe than sorry.

+1 for Perhentian, Tioman, Redan for DSD.

Somehow those places are more familiar with handling DSD. They have higher volume of DSDs everyday.

Redang don't allow DSD to wear fins though. Tioman usually bring DSD to Renggis and I find Renggis beautiful even though sometimes I don't see anything, but sometimes I see everything from sharks to turtles.

Tenggol is like more diver-oriented, less touristy.

Which part of Bali are you staying at? Tons of dive centers there.

Got check the first page of this thread or not? And you should've gotten some stuffs from MIDE few weeks back, things were the cheapest then.

Which dive shop you usually go to?

Try Scubatex/Scubastation. And also depending on what particular brands you are looking at.

Nowonder la. Those two places are known to cut throat.

OU top floor one not so bad

If you're not so particular with brand, go for Scubatex/Scubastation.
If you're looking for particular popular brand, maybe try Scuba Warehouse.

AXA is purchased online. Claims all done online.

I've done various claims with AXA travel on other travel related claims. But none related to diving yet, touchwood.

I guess just google up and you'll be able to find plenty of dive centers that will pick you up from Ubud.

Yes. They cover leisure diving. But if you want proper diving insurance, go with DAN.

jakesean also going to Tulamben if not mistaken.

Nope. We were diving Soyak on Saturday late afternoon and lots of planktons and vis very bad. But no whale shark

Yup, bad vis big stuffs.

Marine Monkees posted on their Facebook photos of the sightings.

Getting cheaper and cheaper to get license these days. Competition is much higher now compared to last time.

Got got. Island got plenty of margikap.

Laguna Redang also sponsoring lures.

Where do you plan to dive?

That's prolly because it's your first time diving. Excited divers tend to not be able to sink easily.

I need to dive with excited divers to see some sharks.

What kind of divers attract molas?
