Dauin, Negros Oriental: A Macro Surprise

Exploring Negros Oriental wouldn't be complete without diving in Dauin. Such a surprising macro haven for muck-lovers alike. The presence of artificial reefs made Dauin's dive sites richer in marine life. Did three dives in Masaplod, Pyramid and Mainit dive sites. First time to see blue-spotted stingrays! The thrill of taking their photos excited the heck out of me! Don't miss experiencing drift diving in Mainit. Wondering why it is called such? Feel the hot patches of sand due to the thermal hot springs underneath. See also Dauin, Negros Oriental.

About Mona

Certified as a PADI rescue diver. Got my first compact camera in 2011. I was simply content then to just capture a glimpse of what I see during my dives. It was only last February 2014 that I fully maximized the use of manual macro settings.

My camera skills and knowledge are still a work in progress. Enjoy browsin’!
