Diving in General Santos

6-March-2007

My uncle in General Santos owns a SCUBA diving resort, and is run by my cousin
Paul who is a PADI certified Divemaster and Instructor. This was our very first
dive together --- and obviously not going to be our last dive.

Joy and I brought some of our gear, but the tanks, air, BC, and computers were provided
by Paul. We had a gear boy who helped us carry our gear down to the ocean. We had a
small boat (banca) who follows us from above while we dive and drift with the ocean current.

My only regret here was, Joy couldn't dive with us because she was 8 months pregnant. She
stayed at the surface with the boat and snorkelled around us as they followed us from above.

Please visit my uncle's website: South Point Divers (Philippines)
and the un-official site: South Point Divers (Our Visit)



Are we ready?

Look 'ma, no hands!
