Looking to dive in Tioman in March.

Any Recommendations ?
Looking for cheap / budget options.
1 OW
2 Fun dive 4D3N though.

I don't wanna balik perhentian.
Otherwise just perhentian quivers as it's pretty cheap
*

From personal experience. The place is clean and nice.
Not as cheap as Go Deeper but not as expensive as Berjaya.
Place also not that ulu but its a small kampung

Was suppose to head down to Tioman 20-23 Feb.
But gotta cancel due to the Amaran Ke-2 and all vessels gotta suspend its operation.

Anyone knows any DC or Divespot to go in Peninsular apart from Perhentian/Tenggol.

Please advise.

p/s: wanted to go to Selakan, but then the flight + package = KOYAK. so decided to stay in Peninsular.
*
eh.. what's that Amaran ke 2 ?

I'm going from 6-8 Mar for AOW. Already booked tickets, reservations, etc

Mersing dependent on tides. Sometimes the schedule 5:00am but tide not enough then they wait and wait.
I also heard cases where they leave earlier than scheduled. I haven't missed my ferry before but the ferry I was in did leave earlier than scheduled before.
*
waaahhh... ok, so far no issue for me... yet
Which ferry u used ? Bluewater or Cataferry ?

Any divers whatsapp group here? I am kinda new to diving and would like to meet more divers. I am going to perhentian next month, if anyone is going too maybe we can meet up smile.gif
*
Next month as in April ?... I'm planning to go Perhentian also. Just haven't decide on date and resort/DC

QUOTE(Felice821 @ Mar 6 2020, 12:52 AM)
Planning for Tioman trip. Not really on budget type, willing so spend a little more for better stay and DC. Better with some makan2 or activities at night time.

Initially my friend said Berjaya, but seems too far and nothing much at night. So, try asking here for recommendation. First time to tioman.
*
I'm just back from Tioman, was there over the weekend. Just complete Advance biggrin.gif

QUOTE(EvanSoon @ Mar 9 2020, 08:29 AM)
Tioman for nice accommodation really difficult specially last minutes.
There is 1 or 2 places in Tekek as well such as GoDeeper but GoDeeper is a bit far from your makan makan. Their food not bad tho.
*
Was in Go Deeper 2x, 1x Berjaya and 1x Tekek 1108
Since my regular DC is in Go Deeper, normally prefer to stay there unless full.

Anyone knows if I'm going to need a red filter for the Gopro Hero 8?

Got good deals on the GoPro hero 8 ?
What are the must have accessories and what not needed at all

Was thinking of getting one when it launched, but that time thinking better spend the money on getting more dive experience.

Ooo battletech, make sure install Roguetech mod after you complete the vanilla campaign

Yeah, will do. Already took a look at the mods that are available on nexus.

Just completed Artru.. took a few re-load and luck to complete it sweat.gif

Too bad the vanilla mech lab is buggy, crazy lag. Don't know if there's a patch for it. hmm.gif

Considering i'm the crazy person who was out diving till a few days before MCO, I will admit it's very tempting... but I think it's prudent to wait at least a few months, until we see a consistent trend of improvement... now still so volatile.

There is always pool diving!  biggrin.gif
(once swimming is allowed, that is)
*
Lol... how deep is your pool? Mining pool kah laugh.gif

IMHO, equipment is the least of your worries.

I think everyone seating close together in the dive boat already fail if someone has the virus.

Food wise not many choices.
