Highlights:

October is usually the best time to dive Tioman, evident from our club trip last year. Visibility was the best I've seen in Tioman at this time last year, because it is the small window of time before the monsoon hits. Last year, a group even spotted a whale shark in Chebeh! Let's hope we are blessed with great viz, at least!

We will also explore a new dive site on Sunday, Pulau Burong (well, it's new for me).

Diving will be on MV Ruby, a new liveaboard. The boat is 20m-long, beam is 4.5m, it has:
2 twin rooms
4 triple-share rooms
2 bathrooms with HOT shower

The price will include:
- 7 dives
- All meals
- Transport to and from Mersing

- Good company :)
