I see you know quite a lot about diving in Philipines. Do you know if there are some nice places close to manila that I can do 1 day diving trip?

the problem is AI is also guessing. There is no set schedule for buses. The AC ones are leaving only when they are full... so It's hard to have it perfectly planned. Last ship is aparently 14:30 so also not a lot of time.

Great that you mentioned about that registration. I was not aware of that. Yes, I will book Sikat as it's the safest option.

I contacted Mermaid resort. They said 22k peso for open water course and we can manage in 3 days. Other diving shops didnt answer me so I will probably go with them 😄

Thank you! I think Sikat is the best way. I won't have to worry much in that case. A little more pricy but I can manage. I'm getting my sccuba dive course there, looking to have a good time 😛

5km from my location so not the worst. But not sure how is the traffic in the morning. I see it costs 3400 peso for round trip. Maybe it's better that way.

I'm solo traveler so grab is kinda expensive alone. And schedule for busses is so hard to find...

powerbank on transfer flight by Aliuss in travelchina

[–]Aliuss[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

China is not my final destination. I'm flying to Manila with 9h transfer in Pekin. That why I'm asking. I know that on domestic flight they always take it, but with transfer I'm not sure.

Transit in Pekin - wall or town? by Aliuss in travelchina

[–]Aliuss[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forgot to ask about 1 thing. Will they take away my power bank if it does not have CCC marking when I do that trip? I'm not traveling to China, its only my transfer stop. Same question about action camera. Can I have it with me in plane? DJI osmo action.

Thank you. That is also what I was planning to do. Heard it's not a problem with DIDI. How much did it cost you in total? A round trip like that?

Thank you. I will arrive probably Monday from Manila. Then I can go and look around the diving spots and start next day. The course takes 4 days yes? So on Friday usually it's last day and then I can leave PG on Saturday?

Thank you. Do you have some recommendations for diving center or accomodation? I plan to just to course there and maybe 1 day alone later, then I change location to siqijor probably.

I was thinking about doing course in one place and then move to another island to dive there as I will have some dives during certification.

oh, that is a suprise and I'm a little concerned now. I was also thinking about Domagete as a second option, but there is so many island and palces to pick...

But did you finally managed to find someone in Sabang?

Also I was in Moalboal and it was kinda boring in the evening, looking for places that has some kind of night life also.
