@@livethephilippines thanks for sharing your Dauin diving trip! My wife and I met Justin & Judia and she tried out diving there at Critter Hunter too--and loved it! (I'm too aquaphobic still to dare dive.) Colt, you're a natural! I hope to see lots of future dives on this channel and on your own!
Oohh colt is in the big league now! Dauin is where Finn made his marine wildlife shots for a book sold in amazon. So happy that critter invited u to explore. 👏👍❤❤ now imma go to colts channel 😄
Very happy for you , good looking young man, congratulations, your mom and dad is very proud of you , thank you for your beautiful vlog, “GOD” bless you always
Phil's assertion about Apo Island's exceptional beauty and significance as a marine sanctuary is spot-on. Colt's inaugural scuba diving escapade in one of the world's premier diving destinations must have been truly remarkable! Looking forward to watch in on Colt in the Wild too! 🤿🐢🪸
What an episode Phil! That must be your best ‘very-Philippines’ type of adventure. I used to dive in Anilao, 2 hours away from Manila and it’s one of the most colourful and richest underwater marine life in the country. Regards from london
Phil and Colt, it was such a pleasure hanging out with you while we were there. Colt you have a lot of natural ability under water. I know you are going to love your future of Critter hunting below the waves. Danielle and I just left Critter Republic and we had such a good time that we are now in the process of rearranging some of our travel plans so we can return before we head home to the states. @CritterHunter thanks for everything. You made everything so easy and stress free. BTW, Danielle says to tell Noel that she wants to start diving at 6:00 am every day when we return. :)
Todd, it was so great to spend time with you and Danielle! Colt and I are envious of the extra time you got to spend down there 🙂 We’re heading to Coron this morning, so lots of snorkeling in the coming days, but no scuba unfortunately. Hope you make it back to CR before heading home! Safe travels…
Congratulations guaping colt you did scuba diving at early age I’m always following your family vlog & starting today I will follow you too guapo enjoy more
Hello from sunny Hilton Head Island, South Carolina USA. Awesome video guys !! I'm here now actually to let you know, I went directly to Colts channel to watch his diving video after watching the Philippines however,I couldn't find anything but the 4 videos, 3 shorts,and 2 playlists which I have already viewed. Just thought that I should mention it. Thanks gang, ~ Dave
Very proud of colt for doing that his age I was 15 when I did my scuba dived in curaçao Colombia Aruba Hawaii Canary Islands proud of him it’s def not a easy feat and I’m old my lungs bad now n muscles
@@livethephilippines it’s really hard to be subs certified especially in Caribbean I got certified in Aruba and rly Hard. Proud of them young uns I have asthma now so can’t do anything without being scared proud of colt I know he loves it
You guys are cool! Dumaguete/Negros has a lot to offer when it comes to tourist spot. Siquijor is an hour to travel and Apo Island is a gem for diving. Enjoy Colt! 😊
Hi Colt, i am happy for you! You seem to look so confident with your gear and scuba diving outfit! And as a vlog beginner, you seem so confident and sure of what you say and want to be! Wishing you all the best Colt!
Apo was where I took my advanced diving certificate. I used to dive there almost every month - back in the late ‘90s. Not to be confused with the Apo reef in Mindoro, which is equally stunning.
Only the most virgin Pacific Ocean 🌊 water 💦 that enters the Philippines and exits to various Asian countries due to the rotation of the earth 🌎. Love the Philippine beaches!
Colt is the next gen of Finn Snow. Almost like watching a younger Finn with Justin. They both have that natural auras when it comes to nature, hope he gets to colab with Finn, even Kulas of Becoming Filipino, someday.
it's great to see guys with Justin, I enjoyed watching his dives with Finnsnow as well. Awesome content :) by the way, where can I get that cap you are wearing? (watching from SLC, UT)
Very cool! Critter Republic is a great place to learn to dive and more. Just left there as well. Thank you Justin and Judia and team. Excited to see more of your diving adventures Colt!
Nice feature of Philippine variety of activities and diving is one that differentiates from other countries; we snorkeled in el Nido Jan 2024 was fantastic just imagine diving deep in the ocean. We hope to visit the diving capital dumaguete.
What awesome father-son bonding time! So some mom-daughter time coming? :D Cheers! Colt is a quick learner! You had a very good trainer. And that welcome snack was on point. :)
One of the reasons I voted for Siquijor on your poll, was not only Siquijor, but its surroundings - including Dauin and its diving spots. Besides doing a scuba dive course at the best scuba instructors of the Philippines (which is not only my opinion) you can do a lot of things more on Negros: 1.) Visiting the mountain area you pointed out on the videos. Besides the mountain lakes you talked about, there is also Casaroro Falls. Also there is thermal activity, you can drive by a road where the steam is coming out of the rocks and get to Red Rock Hot Spring a great place to wind down. 2.) Revisiting Dauin. It is just a great diving area. By the way the sand is black because it is ironsand. It looks cool but watch out for your electronic devices if they are magnetic (like an Insta Go and so on) - and the sand is magnetic too. In the hills of Dauin is also one of my favorite coffee places, Baslay Highland Brew Coffee. I am sure Erin would like it too. 4.) Dumaguete itself. Stay in the Henry Hotel, its a real treat. Go and eat at Arbour Restaurant, where a german cook cooks delicious filipino meals with an european twist. 5.) Siquijor of course, its just a real nice, laidback place compared to other touristy islands. And of course for visiting a traditional healer there on the Island of Fire and Witches, even if you dont believe in it :) 6.) If you want to discover Negros for longer, you could drive up south towards Bacolod, but making a stop at Manyujod Sandbar (If you come in the right time, you can see dolphins there) and also in Sugarlandia, the area around Mount Kanlaon where they distill the Don Papa Rum who won many awards worldwide. After that, visit Bacolod, they have great food too and you can see many remnants of the spanish colonisation. Negros Island (+ Siquijor) is really underrated, but worth a visit.
wait... i've seen Justin before... i think he used to Dive with Finn Snow? I also believe Dauin is where his boat the M/Y Gypsy is located... I promised myself one day that i would dive on Finn's boat... look forward to watching the rest of the episode

@@livethephilippines yw
What a first dive! Congrats, colt !
So amazing that he had this opportunity :)
Very Good for pronouncing Dumaguete correctly. 😂 I for a second thought that expected for a Dumaguete sound like Spaghetti. But 101% on point Man!
Phil is always great with pronunciations :)
Way to go Colt! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
So proud of him!
Next stop for Colt, Ant Canada with Mikey Bustos
Maybe next Colt could go on Finn Snow's yacht, Gypsy for an ocean adventure! 😉
What a fabulous vlog! Really enjoyed and impressed with your adventure! Great! 👍
Thank you for watching! 🤗
Thanks for posting. YOUR VIEWERS got to sewe what we they missed on their neck of the woods😂😊

We are still hoping to have Siquijor for our group trip. We should have more info on that soon!
Hopefully you could visit Bacolod city as well during Maskara festival in October.
That would be really fun :)
You MUST visit the "Timber Of the South" called Butuan City a beautiful city with large pizzas!
Great stuff! I hope one day i can pass by and learn how to do scuba.
If you do, we highly recommend using Justin with Critter Republic.
Dumaguete - my hometown! 🫰❤️🇵🇭🏝
Beautiful hometown!
@@livethephilippines Next time check out the mountain Mt. Talinis like at Valencia. Temps are nice and cool up there and the views are great!
Colt is incredible
💯 we agree!
Colt is awesome!
100! we think so too!
Visit Bacolod City next please and don’t forget the chicken inasal and Campuestohan resort. Regards to your family 🇵🇭❤️🇦🇺
Brave young boy! 🙌🏼
Yes he is :)
Next dive to check out TUBBATAHA reef ! 😍✌🏼🇫🇷

as i watch... i'm literally flashing back to my open water diver course several years ago in Maui... great job trying something different Colt!
just reaching the ending... it truly is a dive bug... well put Colt! super happy for you bud!
You probably have seen Justin before. You should come dive with him sometime, he has a great dive shop and makes great experiences 🤩
Got my first intro dive there in Apo island :) Great experience for Colt and looking forward to his Colt in the Wild episode :)
Awesome! That's the perfect place for a first dive :)
