QUOTE(air_mood @ Mar 5 2019, 02:27 PM) I'm flying over on Friday. Diving on Saturday. How much Poni quoted you? Thought the price quoted to me was ridiculous considering how different it was to Oceanic Quest. hehe, i think your price definitely more expensive than what I got. Because I did my open water certification there, I got free rental (though I have my own equipments now), and then I'm working here, so my dives are 60$ for 2 dives, 80$ for 3. I bought also season pass, can dive unlimited from March till October.

QUOTE(air_mood @ Mar 6 2019, 10:28 AM) Ahh, I'm going with Oceanic Quest then. Thought the prices quoted to me were ridiculous. Whoever answered the whatsapp, not very proactive as well. Took quite a while to get me an answer to confirm the rates. Oceanic Quest quoted me $150 for 3 dives including equipment rental. So am diving with them this Saturday morning. That's great, hope you have fun. While you are here, better to have a 2mm wetsuit, I dived last week and it was 23 degree at about 25m depth.

QUOTE(air_mood @ Mar 6 2019, 05:18 PM) I don't have my advanced yet, so would most likely not go more than 18m. Also, I dont actually have a wetsuit yet for now. Haha. Been diving with beach shorts and t-shirt. well, just rent it from the DC if you will, it's really cold.

I have a gopro hero 3, and my footages are very shaky. So I would suggest you better have one that has image stabilizer. I'm eyeing for the new DJI osmo action or the about-to-be-released SJ9 strike which would be cheaper than Hero7.

Just last sunday Miri has a diver drowned and passed away. Heard he was caught in a fishing net while went diving alone. Better be careful when you are diving alone, especially when the weather is not so pretty.

QUOTE(zstan @ Nov 29 2019, 09:23 AM) Cement wreck is Labuan punya la. all these brunei divers encroaching malaysian waters illegally and claiming it as their own.  it is very true, cement wreck and blue water wreck do belonged to Malaysia water. But honestly going from Brunei is better than Labuan, one is the price is cheaper here and also operators are better. Other than that, Brunei's Dolphin wreck, Bolkiah wreck, Australian wreck, American wreck and the oil rig is really nice to go too.

QUOTE(zstan @ Nov 29 2019, 02:29 PM) Australian Wreck and American Wreck also belong to Labuan lol.  it's not about price, it's about encroaching other country's water illegally. brunei divers are lucky they didnt get shot by the marine police. Lol, I love to go Blue water and cement wrecks one more time, don't shoot me

QUOTE(cmah89 @ Dec 3 2019, 03:07 PM) Bad time for boracay, was there 29 Nov - 02 Dec, everyday after 12pm/1pm all water activity cancelled due to strong wind/strong wave as Typhoon Kammuri approaching. Managed to do 2 dives on Sunday only. Any of you guys have recommended dive center in Nusa Penida? Planning to dive there August next year. I recommend Lembongan Discovery Dive and Dive Concepts. Lembongan is the one we had April this year. Why I recommend is firstly their equipments are well maintained. The dive master is also a photographer who took photos for us and only requested a little bit of tips for his photos. Lembongan Discovery is a local dive center by the way.

the pre-requisite for AOW is only OW isn't it? Maybe you can skip the refresher and go straight for the course. just my 2 cents to save money, lol.

QUOTE(zstan @ Mar 6 2020, 03:45 PM) Dived in Brunei last Sunday. Alot of these jellyfish, as well as the spot winged comb jellyfish. But it was fun to see fish eating the jellyfish as you will see the empty pouches of the spot winged comb jellyfish left in the water after being eaten.
