What an amazing place...

I was looking to do my Divemaster Training....which I completed because of Felipe. It was great!

What Pau and he are building here with Ankay is amazing...one of the most beautiful places I've seen so far. The dive sites are located not even 5 minutes away by boat....they are quite shallow but therefore breathtakingly colorful! I really loved the squids!

During the volunteer/survey program I learned a lot concerning corals, sponges, fish,...I am definitely looking different at reefs now!

Accommodation (hot shower!) and food (especially the BBQ) were also very good.

Thanks, Pau and Felipe for such a great time!
I'll come back, for sure!

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
Bring more mosquito/sandfly spray and antidote for those nasty creatures...
