i am still looking for a school to go diving.. any package u guys know which u can recommend? which island can i choose for my virgin trip? anyone pls?

Hi souphamster,

You can check out this dive center, http://www.ocean-ambassador.com :-). Which island to choose for your virgin trip? I would say Pulau Tioman...as you get more experiences, you can visit other more exotic sites.

well its just basic open water you're looking for?

basic open can be done in SG, at Pulau hantu. but vis may get shitty, like 3 m? but still, i took it cos its cheaper, more convienient.and its really just a basic qualification. and after that the Advanced open water then can spend more and take in Msia. or i think you can look for trips that do both basic and advanced kinda at the same time.hahahhaha dont know if thats possible.

me... i went alone for my 1st dive trip.

no frens no khakis.. but made lotsa divers frens there.

no worries abt not having any frens there bro.

IMO, Pulau dayang is by far still the best site ..

great place to dive.

but the diving packages are all so expensive now.

i learnt during the lowest peak period.

i oni paid $350 for everything.

hahaha..

do we need to know how to swim first before can apply for diving? my swimming means able to swim like 50 or 100m in the swimming pool.

not really lei...im not very fit but im an OK diver... just have to be alert , join a reputable dive centre, get proper training , and remember your BWARF training ... me thinks if you dont ace the class and pool lessons, no reputable dive centre will take you out to sea to do OW anyway :D Happy diving!
