Pulau Perhentian - 17/ 06 / 2013 - 20 / 07/ 2013 Part II (The Diving Part)

Day 3 is free and easy so we can do what we want and so we did our very first diving with https://www.facebook.com/LeisureWorldDivers and they offer PADI courses too.


So here comes the function of the swimming pool at Arwana Resot

 this is our handsome guy name Dom, he was our instructor for the diving and he`s from Pulau Perhentian Kecil or Long Beach.

After this trip he went by back jungle tracking to the another side of the island and take a water taxi to Long Beach

oh yeah, we are all suit up and ready

So we started out training in the pool, we learned how to used the BCD, regulator and also some basic skills for us in case of emergency.

Look at Wendy`s face!!!

Departing to Teluk KK near Pulau Perhentian and yea, the only guy in the boat is the Shanghai guy but I dont know him either. hahahahaha

we were taking picture in the pool right after the training

ok! I admit I really look ugly bubble coming out but it`s really cool when you did it in the sea.

So this is the man-made thing for the breeding of the coral. sorry because I dont know what it called.

and FYI for 2 years coral can only grow 1-2 cm

We were holding by by hand and moving together.
as we ascent, the pressure getting higher so we have to balance it using Valsalsa Maneuver method (that`s the common method learnt in diving school). Pinching nostrils and blow through nose. The resulting overpressure in throat will force the air up to Eustachian tubes.

As we ascending, we must do it but not waiting until feel the terrible pain in the ears only do it and no one gonna help you out because we cant balance out for you so you gotta take the initiative the blow up before getting deeper and deeper

Ok, I was literally sitting on the coral

Look at them !!! Holding hand . So sweet  xD

Look at these fished and corals ! There were so amazing and I was so excited to get close up with the fishes

this is the Clown fish or we call it Nemo

We were given a T-shirt as it just arrived on that day.

behind is the dive shop next to Arwana Resort.

Oh gosh, this is such a  good place do indulge into where you get to spend quality time with a group people who is passionate into diving.

I started loving this place, but sadly I have to go and hopefully I will be back there ASAP for my PADI course.
