Jahat, Pemanggil, Lang, Aur, Dayang, Seri Buat, Pertang Pahang

I still feel as if this house is in motion. Having spent 3 nights and 3 days on board the MV Wavebreaker and diving at the islands of Jahat, Pemanggil, Lang, Aur, Dayang, Seri Buat and Pertang Pahang. Over all it was a good trip..although I was bored because my camera’s battery decided to call it quits.

We witnessed a partial lunar eclipse while waiting to be transfered to the MV Wavebreaker that was anchored some 4.5 nautical miles off Tanjung Gemuk due to extremely low tide.

The first and second dives were at Pulau Jahat, followed by two at Pemanggil, one dawn dive at Lang, one at Pinnacle One off Aur, one each at Rayner’s Rock and Captain’s Point in Dayang, a night dive at Lang, one dive at Seri Buat, and last dive at Pertang Pahang.

I was bored with no underwater activity other than banging my tank to attract attention and point out stuffs to the divers. I was extremely bored. But I really enjoyed the trip because of the company and good dives.

Still, I need a working camera each time I dive.
