Third Muck Diving Trip in Dauin, Dumaguete

It was my third time to dive with Liquid Dumaguete in Dauin, Philippines. Most of the things are the same as before. The updated one is the customers can access WiFi at the cottages. It's easier for us to connect the "modern" world. For more information of the dive resort and diving in Dauin, please check my previous posts:

Second MuckDiving Trip in Dauin

Moreover, we changed a place to take ferry going to Dumaguete this time. We were supposed to take fast craft at Li-loan port heading for Sibulan, Dumaguete as usual. Due to the bad sea condition, the ferry was cancelled. Instead, we went to Bato to take the ship of Maayo Shipping going to Tampi, Dumaguete. This big ship, which even can carry vehicles, isn't affected by the weather too much, however, this route  takes about 40 minutes to reach Tampi and it's further going to Dauin.
