Comments	During my first 2 dives I saw a blue ringed octopus, giant frogfish, 2 large cuttlefish, nudis, green turtle and a turtle head sea snake. What a great first day! Every day diving in Dumaguete had wonderful critters. Loads of anemones with fiesty anemone fish, the largest green sea turtles I’ve ever seen and some ribbon eels. Don’t expect to see large fish here Our dive guide, Wingman, was great at spotting critters and taking excellent care of divers. Diving is from skiffs. The boat crew are very helpful with accommodating divers needs - like letting you take off your BC in the water before climbing the ladder. The food at Atlantis is delicious and varied with specials every day. Good veggie options each day. Albert, Restaurant Manager is hands on making sure food is delivered promptly to hungry divers. The wait staff are friendly and efficient. I was in a basic room that was comfortable and clean. Joesph, the Resort Manager, makes sure all runs smoothly so guests have a pleasant stay. Bring your own hair conditioner if needed as none is supplied in the room. The only thing I would change is to have them stop using detergent as defog. A reef safe defog would go a long way in keeping the environment healthy for all the wonderful critters.
