A good friend wanted to come to Malapascua for a dive trip and we stumbled upon Sea Explorers. Making arrangements was a breeze since the dive shop is connected to two hotels, Ocean Vida and Buena Vida. I finally committed this dive trip to getting my AOW and EANx certs. Sea Explorers made arrangements for our private transfer and had a car waiting for us at our hotel which took us to the pier. Once we arrived at the hotel and dive shop, we were quickly greeted by Keith and went over details on how we make arrangements for our dive trips and paired me up with Alexandra would be my AOW instructor.
Since our room wasn't ready until 2, we opted to join the 9:30 and 1:30 charters. Though the vis wasn't great, we did see some pretty cool things. The main attraction here are the thresher sharks where we were fortunate to see during one of the two times we went out. Again vis wasn't ideal but we were able to make them out. The other attraction are the Mandarinfish which come out at sunset to mate.
Would definitely recommend Sea Explorers to anyone and am hoping to make it back here one day. read more
