Comments	I was there in May and the manager kept telling me I had to come back, so I told him I'd been trying to get on their live aboard Azores on the trip that takes 10 days to go around the island of Cebu for 5 years with no luck. I told him to get me on that boat and I'd come back. Less than two weeks later he told me had 2 spots on that boat in Nov on a 12 day trip. So back I came. I had just been in the Solomon Islands and there was 8 days between the trips so I had 7 days in Dumaguete to dive before the live aboard. I was amazed how many different things were there in Nov. that hadn't been there in May. It worked the other way around too. Both times I've been here were great. I will have to go back sometime. This is mostly muck diving.
