Travel Channel 

Great Barrier Reef is one of the most publicized scuba places ever, but I was fortunate enough to have been to a few unheard of places that were Great! On my way back from Hong Kong I decided to detour to three places. The first Was a very small island in the center of the Phillipines called Boracay. The most beautiful island I've ever been to and the scuba was great! Next stop was Koh Phi Phi, Thailand and the diving there was so diverse and beautiful! Definatley my favorite so far. Then next was indeed The Great Barrier Reef off of Cairns and it was definately amazing, but something about Thailand that really took the cake. My dream would have to be a scuba/surf vacation to Fiji on a liveaboard boat for several days.
