Helicopter IslandThe second dive in El Nido, at helicopter island. This dive had so many clown fish on display living in anemones. I also saw a cute little cow/toad fish? -- not 100% sure what species it was. Rich coral ecosystems were super colourful. There was brain coral too, many nudibranchs and sea squirts. On this dive I tried to learn how to shoot bubble rings by forcing the back of my fists through streams of my bubbles. GoPro footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovExeUmuces

South MinilocOne of the most amazing dives I've ever done. This was the first dive in El Nido. There were so many tropical fish like parrotfish and angelfish. We swam to an area full of giant cabbage coral. I saw a lion fish and a grouper. The reef was so full of life that the experience was overwhelming, I found it hard to take in how much life there was to see. Fantastic time!

Twin RocksThis was my last dive in El Nido. Moto, AJ and I did a drift dive at Twin Rocks near Miniloc island in El Nido. Highlights from this dive were mostly the formations. There was a great reef wall, and cave-like formations that we swam through, it was a lot of fun. At the end of the dive I tried blowing bubble rings for the very first time.

Paradise BeachWent diving with Submariner for another day! Decided to ditch the work activities so that I could do this instead. Moto from japan was my buddy and AJ my dive master again. We went to paradise beach which is not a reef but a sandy area. Life is sparse, but also very unusual and interesting. AJ said it's one of his favourite dive spots. I saw 2 robust ghost pipefish, a seahorse, starfish, toad fish?, clown fish, crab, eel, a passion salmacis urchin, and some very beautiful jellyfish. Afterwards we spent time on the beach and hung out with some puppies! GoPro footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1dHs86Pb_4
