Fantastic
Dive Safari Combinations for enthusiastic divers! |
|
|

The dive
professionals of Easy Diving in Negros and Cebu Savedra
Dive Center in Cebu have joined forces to organize 5-day
dive safaris from Cebu to Negros and back. Starting in
October 2012, the safari vessels Royo and Goya commute
between Sipalay (Negros) and Moalboal (Cebu) regularly
back and forth while visiting to the best dive sites the
archipelago has to offer. The highlights of the new Safari
are the Whale Sharks of South Cebu and an island still
unknown of today, Silinog Island. |
|
 |
|
The whale
sharks show up every day in a bay to feed on shrimps and
krill. They are not disturbed by visiting divers and come
very, very close. As of now we have seen these whale
sharks, up to 6 at a time, on every visit but of course we
cannot warrant a guarantee. As long as they are there we
will visit them. |
|
 |
|
The
relatively unknown island of Silinog Island lies off the
beaten path of the regular dive safari routes and offers
new and unexplored dive sites, drift diving and a land
tour to the local fishing village. Other highlights on
this safari are the dive sites of Apo Island and a
wonderful excursion to the Kawasan Waterfalls.The number
of participants is limited to just 8 divers. Most nights
are spent in small, cozy beach resorts in double rooms
with fan.These dive safaris are an unbeatable combination
of top dive sites, whale sharks, shore trips and
accommodation in tropical beach resorts near the best dive
spots. |
