Look at our sexy new boat! The Mindoro Sprinter has just arrived from its maiden voyage from Manila! Super excited and we look forward to bringing our guests to El Galleon and Asia Divers very soon on this boat. We’ll keep you all posted when it’s up and running, but we’re looking at some quicker crossings to Batangas now.

The sun is out and so are we! What a fantastic way to start the day…a nice cruise into the Canyons with just enough current to bring out the big fish, but not so much that you’re blasting through your air and your time. To top it all off we had a nice encounter with 4 very large bump head parrot fishes… with Robin, Gabi and Meinrad.

Scootering through the DPV Specialty Instructor Course

DPV Specialty Instructor Course el galleon dive resort puerto galera

Boys and Toys… Sebastien had lots of fun scootering around our reefs and we actually found some amazing critters on the way… 3 very large stone fishes mating, a huge green turtle with yellow remoras attached, and at our safety stop we were joined by not one but two cockatoo wasp fishes. What an epic dive to conclude all his specialties.

That’s all for now from El Galleon Dive Resort & Asia Divers. See you in the next blog!
