Creature Feature: The Octopus

Octopuses inhabit diverse regions of the ocean, including coral reefs & the ocean floor. They have numerous strategies for defending themselves against predators, including the expulsion of ink & camouflage, their ability to jet quickly through the water, and their ability to hide. They trail their eight arms behind them as they swim. All octopuses are venomous, but only one group, the blue-ringed octopus, is known to be deadly to humans!

There are many varieties of Octopus in the waters of Puerto Galera, so keep your eyes peeled and see if you can spot one!

A Warm Welcome to Cheri – Yoga Instructor & Divemaster Student

We’d like to give a warm welcome to Cheri from Singapore!

She is training to be a Divemaster at Scandi Divers Resort, and will also give yoga lessons to staff and guests – in English or Chinese. Namaste Cheri!

Cheri qualified as a Yoga Instructor in Nepal at Chintamani Gautam’s Nepal Yoga Academy and is certified by the Yoga Alliance. She is also passionate about the underwater world.

So why not try some yoga with Cheri. She can help you to improve your air consumption, bottom time and deal with anxious situations underwater such as over exertion and new divers. Non divers are also welcome to join classes and reap the many benefits of yoga.
