And if so, what can you tell me about the diving, the ops, the acco and
travel arrangements?

TIA

Was in Boracay early this year, we dived with Calypso Dive Center,
http://www.calypso-asia.com/calypso.htm, very friendly people, great
facilities and the accommodation (Pinjalo Villas) is very nice. At the end
of the day there's loads of choice but definitely worth looking at Calypso.

Good luck and have fun

Thanks, it's made the list. :^) But it will probably be a while before I
actually get there.

In case you haven't made it yet: If you must dive Boracay fine - I did
just because I was there but it was the worst diving I've done in the
Phillipines. Not a lot of life and fairly murky the day (and later that
night) I went. If you're in Manila, I'd say check out Anilao or Puerto
Galera since they're close. Otherwise I'd hit Dumaguete for sure. I've
heard Palawan is awesome too but I've not been there yet.
