mura lang mga sis ang intro dive sa davao. i think 750 lang ang bayad sa first dive then 100 pesos succeeding dives. may kasama ding underwater pics iyong package nila. saya =) na-try ko ito 2 years ago, though di pa nga lang naulit kasi may kamahalan sa ibang lugar.

kung may budget ako para sa apo reef part 2 namin, magiintro dive ulit ako. saya kasing experience.

^Hehe! Tama! Ang Open Water Certification nga sa Davao PHP8500 lang kasama na ang island hopping/pasyal :-)

shegothim · « **Reply #126 on:** March 08, 2011, 11:21:15 am »

pag may kaperahan nga sis dun ako sa davao magaaral ng diving kasi super mura.

riandrew · « **Reply #127 on:** March 08, 2011, 12:13:22 pm »

whoa! 8500 lang?
omg, may trip ako to davao this year! *winks*

helga21 · « **Reply #128 on:** March 08, 2011, 12:19:49 pm »

^ ang mura wanna go to davao din, hanap muna ko kasamang diving buddies

riandrew · « **Reply #129 on:** March 09, 2011, 05:20:06 am »

pero teka, 4-5 days yung open water course di ba?

letters_to_cleo · « **Reply #130 on:** March 10, 2011, 11:41:32 am »

^Yes sis. Actually kaya sya ng 3 days. 1 day na pool sessions, 1 day na two dives (sa dagat agad) + 1 day na 2 dives ulit. Then yung fourth day is exam na. Ganun lang yung sa akin but ginawa ko kasi nun every saturday yung 4 days so one month sya hehe. But 4 days is enough aksama na yung exam.

riandrew · « **Reply #131 on:** March 10, 2011, 01:53:35 pm »

^ taga Davao ka? swerte mo naman! easy access sa dive sites!

di ubra yung 3-4 days. overnight lang kasi yung nabook ko for Davao. hehe

letters_to_cleo · « **Reply #132 on:** March 10, 2011, 02:25:28 pm »

^Yup. But nasa abroad ako now, hehe. Uwi ako ng May though for some biz stuffs and isi-siit ko ang dive! hehe! Mag-dive ka pa rin sis sa Davao! Masaya kasi sa Davao lalo pag napasama ka sa Saturday island hopping trip/dive trip pwede kang mag-2 dives sa isang trip kahit novice or wala kang certificate. Ganun pa rin naman may divemaster ka pa rin sa likod mo na taga-control ng aparatus :-)

Best dive sa Davao yung sa Mansud Wall and sa Babu Santa for me. But easiest dive (shore dive lang kasi) yung dive spot sa Paradise Island. So kung di ka makapag-sali sa dive trip sis, punta ka lang sa Paradise Island Resort sa Samal (15 pesos lang ang bangka ride from Davao City to paradise) tapos dun ka magdive, though kasi nagpalit na sila ng dive operator kaya medyo mahal (for me ha, kasi may mga bisita akong nagdive dito).

riandrew · « **Reply #133 on:** March 11, 2011, 12:08:45 am »

^ thank you sa tips! actually yan next kong tatanungin sayo, kung san recommended mong dive sites for beginners.

all noted! thanks!

Investment talaga ang magpacertify but ITS DEFINITELY WORTH IT! Ingat lang din sis sa mga murang rate for certification kasi based sa experiences ng iba naming kakilala mura nga [textspeak!] rate na sinasabi nila pero ang daming hidden charges na wala kang choice kundi bayaran din. example..mababa [textspeak!] rate pero kailangan mong magbayad ng accommodation sa resort, gear rental, tank rental, manuals, ID card, food, pool rental, etc... hindi pala un kasama sa sinasabi nilang rate.

Just my two cents...
