John Tucker and Mark Bluestone got some special T-shirts on their recent trip. John did his 600th dive and Mark did his 700th dive. Both John and Mark have been loyal Asia Diver friends for many years and many of those dives have been here with us. Thank you for your continued support!
They’re back! Yes, it’s that time of the year again when the animals start to appear in P.G. They have been arriving over the past week for this annual event to celebrate birthdays for Terry Llewellyn and John Tucker. John, Terry Graham and Mark Bluestone have been doing some diving, but as usual, the shinanigan alert is up and nothing will surprise us!
Always nice to see Jon Wade and Cathy Hornby back here. Hong Kong holidays make long weekend trips very do-able!
Congratulations to David Coller who has done 100 dives with Asia Divers! Also along for a great weekend were Rebecca Lin and friends Frederick James Adamson (Jim) and Sufen Lu (Angie) who did their AOW with Troy.

It’s like coming home for Mienrad Wahl and Gabby Haar. They did their DM courses with us a few years ago and this time they came here for some great diving and a chance to see some old friends. Congratulations on getting your 600 dive t-shirts!
Congratulations to David Sullivan for getting a 700 T-shirt!
Joining in on the early morning dive we have, Ike, Deanna, Tim, Bob, Brigitte, Ray, Gladys and Elaine. Bob and Brigitte have just moved back to the Philippines from the U.S. and they went through a refresher with Mazi and Robyn Biti and were off to the Canyons the next day!
Alex Suh has been here a few times now, and we always enjoying seeing what he shot. Here are a couple shots from this last trip and you can see more on his website www.divewet.com from here, and some fantastic shots he took while getting real close to sharks. (a bit close if you ask me!)
Look closely and you’ll see two shrimps on this whip coral…
A stunning Nembrtha Kubaryana nudibranch.
Farewell to the Sport Scene Group from Australia. The whole gang really enjoyed their time with us doing some wonderful diving around Puerto Galera and of course a day trip to Verde Island. They spent their final night at the Barrel Bar enjoying the sunset, cocktails and some pretty wild shirts! So much for the so called rainy season! They have had perfect weather for the whole time they were here. P.G. is much nicer than spending all of the winter in some parts of Australia for sure. Hope to see you back again next year!
It’s been wonderful having Rudy, Bobby, Sabine, and Cleome Clements back with us. They had a busy week with Rudy and Cleome doing their Rescue and EFR courses with Troy, and Bobby getting his Open Water certification with Jamie. Congratulations you guys! What a great start to their holiday as they head off to Palau!
The Grahn family has been enjoying the sun, sand and the sea during their Open Water course with Troy. So much for the rainy season! It’s been a stunning week here and looks like it will stay like that for a while. Magnus Grahn, Jonas Grahn, Johanna Grahn and Evelyn Siőberg are very excited to have done their dive training with Asia Divers in Puerto Galera rather than back home in Sweden.
