Philippines Philippine SeaBeen passing Sabang Beach in going to a local divespot "Lipata" (Surigao City, Philippines) when i decided yesterday morning to check out this predominantly sand bars formation (average depth at high tide is .5 of a meter) since it was the highest of high tides - an addition of 1.47 meters. And like magic, the water was exceptionally clear and the (always) submerged portions are well covered with sea grass. i started to get excited hoping to see some seahorses and leaf fishes in the muck areas. and lo and behold, this neon yellow snake eel.

Malaysia South China SeaMuck dive site, with a large amount of old fishing or mooring line, a large part of which is lying on the sandy bottom at a depth of 22 metres. There's supposed to be a black frogfish somewhere in the area, usually on the line, but we didn't see it. Some small seafans with nice Allied Cowries (Phenacovolva sp.) and some unusual nudibranchs. Sea Temp in May 29c.

Indonesia Bali SeaOur stay was at the Mimpi Resort, Tulamben.
All shore diving here from a pebble beach, sturdy footwear is required as the pebbles are large and hurt your feet. The resorts are all on the beach so no lugging of gear as porters are allways on hand.
The sand bottom is black volcanic sand, there appears veruy little life at first but when looking closer the macro life is amazing, Nudi's are everywhere. From Mimpi resort and across to the South (right hand side of bay) is the drop off, to the North (left hand side) is the Wreck of the Liberty, worth diving as there is lots of fish life there. Good for wide angle.

Puerto Rico Caribbean SeaWelcome to Rincon PR a well hidden dive secret, I think most people believe that Puerto Rico has very poor water quality, but in fact we have 60Ft plus visibility for at least 8 months out of the year. What keeps our diving a well kept secret is there is only one dive operator in our town (Tiano Divers) and they are subject to the operating around rough weather and loading a boat from a shore launch not marina, this pretty much make us a hard core divers stop, you know people who don't mind a little work to get to dive some great reefs and walls, we have two island within reach of our coast. First is Desacheo Island which sits about 12 miles west of our town and Mona Island located 42 miles offshore. Desacheo is a marine reserve as is Mona but Mona being so hard to plan a trip too is our version of heaven on earth, If your ever in PR I suggest you take dive and see for your self, you might just end up moving here as I did.
