Thanks Sarah! So glad you found me. Diving is the Perhentians is the best! I have such happy memories of that place. Glad you enjoyed it!

I’m an American staying in KL for a bit. Dove in Perhentian about a month ago with Turtle Bay Divers. We dove Pinnacle, T3, Shark Point, and a night dive at Batu Nisan. After reading this post, I wish I’d seen Sugar Wreck as well. Regardless, I had a great experience and would love to go back (especially to hunt for more nudibranch!). There’s just so much there. I just found your blog today (was googling “dive master courses”), and I love it! Keep up the good work!

That may have been the very first place I saw them as well! Magical creatures.

Our free diving skills growing stronger meant we could stay and play amongst the corals and marine life a little longer each time.
It was one of the most magical beaches and reefs i’d seen our our travels and it was privilege to share it with my family. Fantastic

I know! And I didn’t end up doing my AOW for a year so that “adventure dive” didn’t even count towards it. Not that I can complain because, um, I got my certification for free! Perks of the dive instructor boyfriend.

I also did the Advanced Open Water certificate while in Bonaire, and I agree–it’s just a ploy to make money! I don’t feel like any better a diver than I did with just my basic Open Water =)
