It's not your up at 6:30 in the water at 8:00 pee at 8:05 kind of diving, but he is the wreck king for the area (with very frequent trips to the New York if the USN isn't around).

There is also an outfit called The Bluerock up the beach from him:

Didn't dive with them, but stopped in for dinner one night and the restaurant staff were nice. Don't know anything about their diving. I know there are a couple of other outfits around there, but no info on them. Enjoy your trip.

Thanks! :-) This guy certainly seems to know his stuff. The dive part of the operation looked very good... the only thing that put me off a little was all the "rules" for the hotel they had. Blue Rock looks promising though. I got a different vibe... at least from their website ;-)
I still haven't decided that I won't make a run back over to Puerto Galera when I get to Manila from Cebu. I'll have to decide at some point since they're in opposite directions of each other. I had heard that this was not the optimum time of year for Subic Bay. Can you shed any light on that. What was your experience?
