Perhentian Islands! Just What The Doctor Ordered

[dvatmq...@yahoo.com]

Beach and palm trees everywhere, with shiny happy people are having a
blast in the sun, and at night the smell of Island fresh fish cooking
on the large outdoor barbecues, under the stars.
Malaysia is running a campaign to get people to come and they should
as the place is absolutely what the doctor ordered if you look real
hard you can find a TV but the order of the day is books and naps.
Scuba diving is big here with Quiver Dive Team one of the busier shops
offering "DSD- discover scuba dives"; try dives and intro dives, to
people that have never dived before. Quite a few that starts with the
"DSD" continuing on and becoming PADI Open water divers. The
Perhentian islands are ideal for scuba diving courses with small waves
and lots of dive sites within view of the beach. Doing a PADI Advanced
Open Water is a good deal as well as they have a couple of wrecks near
by that are a lot of fun, like the Sugar wreck which has many
different types of schools of fish, from small barracuda rainbow
runners and damsels. Anemone fish which is the family that Nemo comes
from having allot of the damsel family tree on display here. There are
also great barracuda that can get to be up to 2 meters long. A few
hardy few don't stop at the "AOW" but keep going until they become
dive-masters....
