Before visiting the island my partner and I had discussed going diving, as we had both been before but never together.
We happened across WaterColors on our first evening. We stumbled in, still jet lagged from the flights, where we met Filip.
Within no time at all I had signed up to the PADI Ocean Water course, knowing that my partner and I were keen to dive together in the future.
I was conscious of the balance between skills and dive time, given that I was on holiday with my partner. However we found a perfect balance.
Filip was passionate and insightful throughout, a true professional who clearly loves his job.
He was very relaxed and supportive of my partner who at times struggles with confidence under water.
As well as pointing out interesting creatures/fish, taking time for a selfie or two.
All that as well as the friendly staff that work at the resort.
Even though we weren't staying there, part of me wishes we had down. The food was good, we ate there several times.
The service was second to none, genuinely friendly people who were very accommodating. A true credit to the business/Philippines.
