RE: Another Sardine Run at Panagsama, Moalboal

Your undersea explorations, always make me very interested in your posts. Although I am very bad at diving. I hope to have articles sharing about basic scuba diving from you :)

Yay! Thank you so much!

Scuba diving is different from freediving. Scuba diving needs a breathing apparatus while in freediving, you dive in one breath. I would love to share some basic things about scuba and/or freediving, but I'm not really good at it. Maybe soon! We will have our certifications for freediving next year. I have an open water scuba certification, but it was from last year and I haven't tried scuba diving again.

I also believe that freediving or even scuba diving are always a personal journey. You need to have an expert or master diver who will guide you because both hobbies are very dangerous. If you want to try them, start inquiring in your local dive shops how much is a basic training course. It's an investment because I know these hobbies are not cheap, but they're really worth it.

Thank you for your sharing. I will find out next time, to have a summer full of fun

Nice! I suggest to always go for a basic training course. Discovery and intro courses are okay, but they won't let you immerse into the basics. Basic training courses are a little bit expensive, but it's worth every penny. Plus you can document your journey here so that's an added bonus.
