Underwater with my buddy Ferhan - Pulau Tioman

My first dive ever

I had my open water diving course completed in Pulau Tioman. My first official dives took place here and due to this reason, this island will be special for me. I wasn't able to discover the whole island in my limited stay, but I left there with many good memories from underwater and above.

LOB in Tioman

Our diving group

My second visit to Tioman was on the boat MV Samudera. LOB was short but full of fun. I got my Advance Open Water Diver certification at the end of this trip. I met some new friends and had good time.

Revisiting Tioman

Underwater with my buddy Yigit

It has been 2 years since I had my first diving experience. Nowhere could be more meaningful than coming back to Tioman for another diving trip. I enjoyed the dives as usual, but here I was as a more experienced diver. Considering the thrill I felt in my first time, I realised one more time how lucky I am to pick up scuba diving.
