It’s like coming home for Mienrad Wahl and Gabby Haar. They did their DM courses with us a few years ago and this time they came here for some great diving and a chance to see some old friends. Congratulations on getting your 600 dive t-shirts!
Congratulations to David Sullivan for getting a 700 T-shirt!
Joining in on the early morning dive we have, Ike, Deanna, Tim, Bob, Brigitte, Ray, Gladys and Elaine. Bob and Brigitte have just moved back to the Philippines from the U.S. and they went through a refresher with Mazi and Robyn Biti and were off to the Canyons the next day!
Alex Suh has been here a few times now, and we always enjoying seeing what he shot. Here are a couple shots from this last trip and you can see more on his website www.divewet.com from here, and some fantastic shots he took while getting real close to sharks. (a bit close if you ask me!)
Look closely and you’ll see two shrimps on this whip coral…
A stunning Nembrtha Kubaryana nudibranch.
Farewell to the Sport Scene Group from Australia. The whole gang really enjoyed their time with us doing some wonderful diving around Puerto Galera and of course a day trip to Verde Island. They spent their final night at the Barrel Bar enjoying the sunset, cocktails and some pretty wild shirts! So much for the so called rainy season! They have had perfect weather for the whole time they were here. P.G. is much nicer than spending all of the winter in some parts of Australia for sure. Hope to see you back again next year!
It’s been wonderful having Rudy, Bobby, Sabine, and Cleome Clements back with us. They had a busy week with Rudy and Cleome doing their Rescue and EFR courses with Troy, and Bobby getting his Open Water certification with Jamie. Congratulations you guys! What a great start to their holiday as they head off to Palau!
The Grahn family has been enjoying the sun, sand and the sea during their Open Water course with Troy. So much for the rainy season! It’s been a stunning week here and looks like it will stay like that for a while. Magnus Grahn, Jonas Grahn, Johanna Grahn and Evelyn Siőberg are very excited to have done their dive training with Asia Divers in Puerto Galera rather than back home in Sweden.
Chris Stephenson has enjoyed his recent visit P.G. to complete his Divemaster course with Troy. He ticked off all the boxes and ended his time here with the usual celebration up in the Point. Ichi started his DM course together with Chris and it was very fitting that Ichi was back here at the same time to help with the celebrations! We’ll see Chris back here very soon to do the next IDC…
Pre-dive to Alma Jane as Katja, Chris, Gavin, Dave are under Pete’s direction! It’s always nice to see familiar faces back at Asia Divers.
The Scheuder family had a great vacation this week with them all deciding to take part in the PADI Scuba Diver Course. It was filled with ups and downs quite literally, as a storm passed through making the sea conditions quite challenging and adding to the adventure. Congratulations to Gilles Scheuder, Maarten Schreuder, Anniek Schreuder, Henrik Schreuder and Jolanta Klessens.
Chris has been happily working through his Dive Master Course with Troy. Having just completed the search and recovery dive, he can now effectivly seach for and find any lost items that may have been droped, a very important skill as a Dive master. Stay tuned for the dive master party coming up soon. Asia Divers is a great place to move up the PADI ladder to the pro levels. We’ve got a great facility, some super instructors and some fine places to socialize in the evenings!
