INTERNATIONAL COASTAL CLEAN UP DAY

-
Thank you so much for those who took part in the International Coastal Clean Up Day on September 16 2017. Attached is a summary report of the trash collected and we hope the LGU will take a serious look on smoking & drinking along the beachfront. As reported, many glass bottles were collected along the beachfront and could be dangerous for those not wearing footwear. Anyway, I would like to once again thanks the following sponsors who helped to make this event successful...
1. Boracay Foundation Inc.
2. Jin Da Heng Shooting Range.
3. Seven Seas Property Boracay.
4. Fiesta Souvenirs.
5. Boracay Adventures Travel & Tours Inc.
I also like to thank all the hardworking ICC Coordinators for 2017...
1. CDR Desiree Segovia - Tambisaan Beach
2. CDR Randall Parker - Bulabog Beach
3. CDR Melinda Agustin - Asya Premier To Station 2
4. LCDR Alex Alamsyah - Puka Beach
5. LCDR Arnold Lamsin - Diniwid Beach
6. LT Claire Ang - Boracay Terrence - Station 2
7. LT Pepe Gantalao Jr - Iligan Beach
8. LT Fernando Sardanas - Mangrove Area
Last but not least... Thank you all volunteers who took their time off to be part of this International event but keeping Boracay clean is not an annual event but a daily event for us. Let's set good example for the younger generation to preserve what we have and restore what we lost.
Yours truly,


CAPT Peter Tay PCGA

RENEWAL OF TOUR GUIDE LICENCE

Helen Catalbas of DOT Region VI in providing us the Tourists Arrival for 2012. For 2012, total arrival of Chinese & Taiwanese is 174,567 and Korean is 156,445. I would like mention these 2 markets since 90% of the tourists in these 2 markets do not speak English and totally rely on the assistance of tour guides in the island. Tour Guides for these 2 markets are Frontliners representing Philippines as a destination for fun and enjoyment. We are also representing Boracay Island as one of the best destination in the world and doing our best to represent well of the island. When tourists arrived at Caticlan Ferry Terminal, this is the first place of impression after 11/2hrs of bus journey from Kalibo Airport. Tourists are observing and excited to travel to Boracay Island but tourists are asking why are there a group of Officers acting very

Tides Have played in the beach for more than 6hours? Did you realise the same spot that you were playing become dry? Where is the water? When I was young, I thought it was magic but as I grow older than I understand that these changes are called tides due to the result of the gravitational pull of the moon and to a smaller extent, the sun. Tides affect divers by exposing or concealing rocks that are or near the water's surface. For example, a low tide may expose rocks that make the entry and exit hazardous, but when the tide rises, these rocks may be completely submerged and safe to swim over. You may also avoid long surface walk if you are diving in high tides. Currents In the ocean, currents are formed by winds, waves, tides, and the rotation of the earth. In the northern hemisphere, currents move clockwise and in the southern hemisphere, current move counterclockwise. As divers, we need to know the different kind of currents and to resp
