here is the story,
original content: CEBU DIVER
bunzie’s Cove and Capitancillo Island (Tabogon, Cebu)
I got Rudy Balbuena’s invitation to dive in Tabogon from Mike Lazaro. Tabogon is a town in Northern Cebu, bounded by Bogo in the North, San Remigio in the West, Borbon in the South and the Camotes Sea to the East. I relayed the invitation to Toby Panopio. I was only told where the dive was and given a date, time and place to meet. I didn’t really ask for more details. This was an invitation to dive in a new place, and as usual, I was all for it. Have tanks, will dive. I have turned down several invitations from Mike and Rudy B. in the past, and I was not about to turn this invitation down.
It was a day before the dive that I got more details from Mike. Apparently, we were scheduled to do a clean-up for the first dive at the house reef in Bunzie’s Cove in Bito-on, Tabogon. Then, I learned of an added bonus -- The second dive was in Capitancillo Island. I thought then, Now you’re talking!
Toby asked me for more details regarding the day’s dive when I picked him up that morning and I didn’t have any more details to give him. I was only advised to bring my gear and weights…and to remind Toby to bring his camera.
Getting to Tabogon was no problem. The road going north is well cemented and safe except for a few peeves – a bridge under construction in Catmon, and of course, the tricycles in the highway that slow you down, plus the occasional gung-ho (see A*&HOLE) Ceres and Rough Rider bus driver.
Nobody knew where Bunzie’s Cove, the site of our first clean-up dive, was. Nobody even knew where Bito-on, Tabogon was. All we knew was how to get to Tabogon.
“Once in Tabogon, just look for a National Geographic logo, colored red, right side when you’re going north. You won’t miss it” was the only instruction Mike said was given to him by Rudy. Rudy was already in Tabogon. He went there the day before to prepare for the day’s dive.
The gate to Bunzie’s Cove indeed had that very prominent “National Geographic logo, but colored red” thing. It was very hard to miss.
