This review is from: Lonely Planet Diving & Snorkeling Philippines 2nd Ed.: 2nd Edition (Paperback)
Hello everyone,This book which is currently sitting on my desk is an absolute god send. I preordered it and it was published a month early. I am taking a month vacation to scuba dive in the Philippines and this is the perfect dive guide. There are very few books on scuba diving specfically in the Philipinnes and this book really goes into great detail about the dive sites and what to watch out for. I have reservations for diving in Malapascua and the author breaks down how to get there, the time it takes get there, and how not to get scammed. I would have never know to get to the boat dock before 2pm or I would have a hard time finding a boat over to Malapascua Island. You could tell the author had really been there. I'll report back after I dive the sites he recommeneds.
Excellent and much appreciated guide to diving in the Philipinnes!!!!
