That requires that people have accounts to be able to view. Try uploading it to Vimeo in HD or YouTube in HD, and just copy and paste the URL here and it will appear, no uploading required.

That was cool! What resort did you stay at?

Were the schooling Barracuda at Balicasag Island?

I always liked that Major Tom song, starting from David Bowie, to Rocketman, to that one.

Thanks! We stayed at Alona Tropical Resort (Prosafari Dive centre was located right beside it)

We saw schooling Barracudas at Alona Tropical house reef as well as Balicasag Island (Diver's Heaven dive site). But the schooling Jacks were the best experience at Balicasag Island (Diver's heaven dive site), we saw no less than 5 schooling Jacks as we follow the wall during the dive! Awesome!


BTW, the video is structured such that the dive site names are mentioned before the dive photos and videos, so that acts as a reference what was seen at the dive site (during that time).

Also, anyone knows the name of the "Magic coral" featured? Thanks!

What is the time code on the coral you mentioned?

I got a kick out of the remora looking for a spot to hitch a ride. It looks like they have a much larger raft now for the villagers singing towards the higher end of the Loboc river cruise.
