Apooooo

During traveling in Asia I had heard a lot of good stuff about Apo Island in Negros Oriental, especially from other divers. So that was the next destination after Bohol. We took a ferry from Tagbilaran to Dumaquete, then a bus for maybe half an hour to the south and then again a small boat to Apo. Mario's homestay & dive shop came highly recommended and I really understand why. Great staff, excellent prices, the best room so far for little money and omg the grilled fish!!!

The island is quite small, it's easy to walk around and there's a nice small village with a few shops. It's for sure not a party island. And I hope it stays that way. Though we did try to find a party and ended up drinking baby beer in front of a shop with some ladies & dogs. Why not. So Apo was all about diving, once again. A typhoon a few years ago had destroyed some of the corals but the diving is still world class. Really good drift dives, beautiful wall and lots of macro. And snakes... pfff.

Anyways, I'm lazy once again and rather let the photos speak.

From Apo we took a boat, bus and boat to Siquijor island. Been there done that already but more about the mad biking later. It's beer o'clock in Philippines (Moalboal) again.
