THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW FOR DIVING HERE
- Our dive shop uses 12lt aluminum tanks with INT valve. We have a limited supply of DIN adapters for rent so for those divers who require this service we please ask for you to email and let us know in advance.
- The average yearly water temperature around Malapascua is 25degrees minimum. Most divers are comfortable in 3mml full suits with a hooded vest for those colder deeper dives.
- The salinity of the water around Malapascua is not too high, especially in comparison to the Red Sea and Thailand. Over weighted divers are in danger of damaging coral and putting themselves at un-necessary risk.
