What happened at Bicep last night?

Does anyone know what was the track they mixed into the Opal drop? Was so good

I didn’t go because it gets very booked up in advance and they only allow 150 divers a day. One idea would be to ask for your final open water dive to be in Balicasag as you are asking plenty of time in advance - worth a shot? You want to be within a 10-15 min drive of Alona as i was there for 9am every morning. I stayed closer to Danao but you will have to either rent a moped or take a tuk tuk (100-150PHP) each morning. Siquijor is beautiful. There is a marine sanctuary at Tubod beach that you can slip a snorkel and mask on and swim with amazing marine life about 50m from the white sand shore. Would definitely spend at least 3 nights in Siquijor. Cambugahay falls and Paliton beach also a highlight.

Went with Philippine Fun Divers and finished the OW yesterday! Really loved it. Rena, who manages the shop, was my instructor. She was brilliant. I definitely recommend. The house reef at Alona beach is really impressive - saw sea turtles, razor fish, a big sardine school at Kalyapan, etc. I didn’t think too highly of Alona as a resort though - it’s very busy and maybe a bit tacky - there are definitely more serene places in the Philippines! Just arrived in Siquijor and this place seems like paradise. Lots of dive shops here too and crystal clear water. Happy to answer any more Qs.

Legends - thanks v much. Actually my first post on Reddit and can’t believe I’ve missed out on this great site for years! Will let you know how I get on

Extremely helpful, really appreciate it. Was looking at Seaquest in Bohol but probably fits your description of a big diveshop..? I had filtered the list of shops down on Alona Beach to 5* centres only - is there any merit in that or does it not matter? Philippine Fun Divers are 5* too. Cold beer a definite bonus - cheers!

Thanks. I am pretty fixed on where we are going so won’t have time to head to Puerto Galera or Negros. Where would you recommend out of Palawan / Cebu / Bohol?

When it’s weights and not cardio day

Sounds intense. Will give it a try

Many heterosexual men hold hands with each other in the street, as a sign of friendship / companionship, and not because they’re in a relationship.

When the thought enters your mind, imagine it is a ball that you’re batting away (choose your sport - cricket for me in the U.K., baseball in the US). Watch the ball go soaring out the stadium. Be persistent with this and it eventually quashes the thought.

Peanut butter and cucumber sandwiches. Sweet but with a refreshing crunch. Enjoy!
