Daorong - Panglao - Bohol - Philippines
Today we shod our flippers to dive site Daorong Point located 5 minutes from Alona Beach .
Right now the low season can be felt, there are few divers in the area so I do not lose an opportunity to put his nose under the water as soon as I can!
It was a dive in mid-afternoon, almost at the peak of high tide!
the Philippines as elsewhere, it is often best to dive at high tide because there is often less power and an influx of fresh water provides better visibility.
The conditions were ideal, water at 30 ° C, a visibility of about 25 to 30 meters and a very small current, just enough to be flémard and not have flippers! Everything we love:) We stayed
65 minutes with a maximum depth of 23 meters! The highlight of this dive was the bench catfish! A ball 2 meters in diameter! This struck us as it is very unusual to see a bench outside the reef. These fish usually stay in small groups and mostly in the interstices or under rocks or coral!

3 great dives in the Philippines Balicasag Island - Bohol
Today we made three dives Balicasag with experienced divers from Mindanao, southern Philippines island!
The first in Royal Garden. A slight current made us dévriver north with the left shoulder falling! We saw 2 huge English Mackerel of about 1 meter 50 and 3 turtles leaving planner above the reef!
We went to Black Forest for the second dive. A strong current of the tide made us divert about 400 meters! Large schools of fusiliers, the Moorish idol and big groupers located a little deeper it is the happiness of our peepers:)
After 2 dives drift, we decided to do a third dive more relaxed with less power! So we went to the site of Cathedral, which is ideal for diving and slow macro!
This dive is unanimous! We saw a beautiful frogfish (toadfish) the size of a thumb and pink color (pictured above)! About 7 different kinds of nudibranchs and a carnival of sardines trying to escape the tyrannical tuna:) For the finale, a "Leaf Scorpion Fish" we waited for our safety stop (pictured right). A pure joy of diving!

Punta del Este is located at 2am al East of Montevideo on the Atlantic coast. Punta del Este Uruguay is what al Viña del Mar (north of Santiago) in Chile is and Mar del Palta (south of Buenos Aires) Argentina al: The appointment of the Jet Set, especially in summer.

On the port, many fishermen preparing their departure to sea for the night putting the bait at the end of their lines. Even more amazing, about 5 sea lions live in the harbor and we saw 3 huge sunbathing on the docks. The symbol of the city that we see on every postcard, c is a sculpture on the beach representing the five fingers of a hand raised as if to touch the sky. C is not particularly nice to elsewhere. C is in Punta del Este that the Rio de la Plata is the Atlantic Ocean to the other side of the bay.
We went to visit in 20 minutes by bus to another lovely spot: Punta Ballena.
