please no. I got my girlfriend to see and touch. don't intend to go somewhere else just for that. I was thinking of Tioman for my openwater thing, so that I can go there and enjoy a bit at the same time.

hmm. see how first. =\

too much info simon.. hahaha.. :lol:

if u want to "nuah".... get laid back with no interference from ringing phones, TVs, coffeeshops etc, Dayang is the place for u... i like it coz it is very spartan, simple but the food is fabulous... after each dive, come back to eat, "nuah", stoned, dazed, lie on the beach etc for 20 mins and off u go diving again...

Dayang beach is pristine clear and sometimes u can see fishes swimming ard u at waist deep level... my friend saw a hawksbill resting on 1 of the trips there.. early in the morning, like 7am while snorkelling.. :eyebrow:

For Aur,

there is lodges and slightly more commercialised... also, there are parties on every sat... :)

Hi all;

We've been following this thread closely and there are few things we would like to clarify.

It does not matter how big the group joining PADI Open Water Course is gonna be, as we will split them up once we come to the Open Water Training. Which means that if 20 SGReef Club members join the course, we will have a total of 5 Instructors teaching, rather than just 1.

As for the promotion that you guys are discussing, it is only valid till End Feb. Which means that you have to complete your course prior to that :)

yes.. that is true.. PADI advocate no more than 6-8 per instructor.. but most instructors that i know, they prefer like 4-5 to 1 instructor

what i meant was, i like the dive group to be small, like only 10 ppl on the entire boat... wah.. shoik man... too many ppl as in the case like, 20 students + 5 DMs etc... when rigging up, it is gonna be very crowded!!!!... i prefer to take my own sweet time to gear up... hey, it is a short holiday for me.. <_<

Lester, for this offer which lasts till end Feb, wouldnt it still be monsoon period? just wanna find out.. coz now suffering from nitrogen withdrawal syndrome already... skin drying up.. hahhaa

Oh no...in that case...I'm not in time... :(

So...Benz...can find out about your wifey's one?

Is the info available via intranet or internet?

Flub,

why not u work out your schedule and let the dive operator know.. most of them are happy to accommodate u.. just dun split up too far a gap in-between your pool and open water.

Monsoon Blues No More

Hi all folks.

This is not a commercial posting :)

There are many places to dive during this period. From West Malaysia to Thailand, to places like Manado, Sipandan.

For those who wants a quick fix but Hantu aint your cup of tea, try Rawa and Besar. Diving around there can be pretty surprising.

On one of my dives around Besar, I saw a school of baby box fishes no bigger than 2cm :)

Both Rawa and Besar are off Mersing.
