The Dive Monsters' Pandan Island Escapade Part 2

Have you ever imagined how it feels like to be cast away?... Have you ever tried counting green turtles popping left and right while you are chilling in the convenience of a hammock in front of your hut?... How about close encounters with some hawks bill turtle underwater that will make you feel like you are paying the turtle to pose for yo?... How about a lousy house reef dive with school... no a university of surgeon fish circling around you and then come across with friendly gang bullheads the size of an eight-seater dining table... each!?... and lastly, have you ever been in the position that you are nautically 2 hours boat ride away to the second best dive site in the Philippines?!... WELL..... WE DID.... LAST JANUARY 24-27, 2008.... AND YES!!!! WE ARE GOING BACK...........

When? November 27-30, 2008

Where is Pandan Island? Go check their website please...... www.pandan.com

How do we get there? as you may have browsed the several possibilities to reach the Island, from a flamboyant-ultra-fashion arrival via Seaplane to simply practical-reasonable-sensible-rational-logical-sound-smart but comfortable way < - so we choose this one : ) ... simply we park in Batangas Port then Roro-your-boat to Abra de Ilog then road trip to Sablayan Bay then Boat to Pandan Island.....

MANTAS in Pandan? - nope, we go to APO REEF (yes, this is the second best dive site in the Philippines) as the highlight of this Adventure.
