14-17 Sept 2012 Malaysia Day @ Dayang Island

What a meaningful dive trip we have this Malaysia Day. Besides the normal dive we do, we did a fishing net cleaning up from one of the dive site.

Very good visibility, altho not many fishes, but we still able to see big school of Juvenile Barracude, bumphead, cuttlefish, nudis, octopus, flounder, scorpion fish, lionfish, etc.

When we did a check out dive in Teluk Teluran, we saw a gigantic fishing net covering the coral reef. After the dive, we have talk to our diver, and all of them give us their full support, so we plan our coral rescue plan. Nizam & Danish responsible to cut the rope that tie between the metal chain and net, and others help to slowly remove the net stangling around the corals.


The whole process took us nearly 1 hours, and finally we got most of the net up freely and pull it back to the boat. The net is estimated 50kg in weight, is a huge one.

Thank you all the hero diver in this dive

Congratualation to Faiz, Saiful, Farisha & Rafyda newly certified as Advance Open Water. Keep Diving guys.....

Overall, we had a great time in Dayang, next trip shud be in Nov. Come join us and hope to dive with you guys again soon. Cheers~

13-16 July 2012 Dive Dayang

 

 

對啦.. 我又潛水去了... 因為沒有拍照的關係, 就隨便紀錄一下啦.

這次, 我帶了4位新朋友, Sha, Balgis, Dev & Zaid來到我最喜歡的Pulau Dayang.

很晚? 很早? 上船, 半夜3點鐘... 因為水位不足, 差不多4點才開船, 浪大, 搖搖晃晃的到達....一樣的美麗的Dayang島到了....

聽說天氣不大好.... 風大.... 好... 不管了, 開始潛水了.....見到很多東西也... cuttlefish, turtle, 充滿一個牆的Juruana Fenebris, Nudis, lionfish, etc etc etc....

還真不錯... 雖然, 人真的有點太多...200多位divers呢.... 但是Dayang operation還是一樣照走. 棒!!!

下一次, 幾時呢? 快吧~
