Comments	This 10 day itinerary circles the entire island of Cebu, starting and ending at the Cebu Yacht Club. Three daylight dives every day, plus one night dive. Jona was in charge and ran a first class operation from start to finish. Half the passengers were two families with several young beginner divers. Dive groups, never more than 4, were always arranged to keep the experienced divers together. All dive masters are solid and rotated to everyone got to experience different styles. Dive sites are varied, from muck diving to drift dives. Jona adjusted the dive sites to cater to the general preferences of the divers (less muck diving in our case). The boat is well maintained and has ample room to accommodate the 16 divers (though only 14 on our trip). The entire crew was very involved, carring, and had great attitudes. The chef did a great job with each of the five meals.
