MORE CRITTERS! BOOT DÜSSELDORF
online versie Dear dive friends, Busy times: A new year with new goals has started very well with lots of bookings. Our staff worked very hard to get everything tip top for the busy times ahead. The boats are newly painted and all the dive equipment for rental is renewed. A new Dive Master has been added to the team and we are ready for you! Keep well and keep diving, MORE CRITTERS! Our dive guides have been diving for a long time in the waters of Moalboal and know so many different species that we wonder how they still manage to discover NEW things. This time it is Juan who found a rock shrimp, leander plumosus. It lives up to a depth of 15mtr and is really small, 3cm max. It has an amazing design on its body and a beautiful golden-brown colour. BOOT DÜSSELDORF Good times in Germany Dusseldorf where we caught up with many of our guests. From 19 to 27 January there was the yearly Dive show at BOOT in Dusseldorf. Arie and Desiree were present for the 6th year running and they met up with lots of Magic Island guests. GROUPS VISITING US In recent months we have had the pleasure of welcoming some groups from America. Heartland Scuba from cold Nebraska was with us for the second time and it was so good to see all those familiar faces again. Scuba Travel Venture from sunny California also stayed with us – we already knew many of those divers from the DEMA show in America and it was great to see them again. Thank you to both groups for a great time and we are looking forward to seeing next time! NEW ROOM AMENITIES: We are constantly upgrading the services we provide! There are several new features in the rooms including hair-dryers, shampoo and soap and also a laundry basket for our laundry service. THE BOATS ARE REPAINTED: Our 3 traditional Banka boats are looking new again! The strong Filipino sun, the salty seawater and intensive use is really hard for our boats so proper maintenance is very important. After stripping, sanding and painting, 3 freshly renovated boats are ready for the coming year. ATM MACHINE IN MOALBOAL: Two hours on the bus for an ATM machine is no longer necessary! It took a while but finally we have a real ATM machine in Moalboal. The local pharmacy installed an ATM machine which also accepts international cards. WHAT HAPPENED THIS MONTH AT MAGIC ISLAND? Marianne celebrated her birthday in January and in February Ronnen, Richard and Elaine celebrated their birthdays, the last birthday cake was for Warren.
