The Lifeguard
has already conducted an inspection on 8 operators of helmet diving in the
island of Boracay.
According to
Life Guard Supervisor, Miguel “Mike” Labatiao, they have started the said
inspection last week.
During which,
they have observed the facilities to be in order, including equipments used
for the mentioned water sport activity.
Labatiao said,
that in their previous assessments, the opposite was seen, where the operations
where poorly organized and has caused dismay to tourists who tried it.
However, since
the local government pushed for the implementation of scrutinizing the
activity, operators were urged to sort out and standardize their services.
Labatiao added,
that he could 99.9% guarantee the good quality operation of helmet diving in
the island.
Meanwhile, the
group has recently been focusing on the safety of the tourists during the
activity, particularly with the usage of oxygen.
