RE: International Year of the Reef (IYOR). 3rd Observance in 2018!
Awesome! I was diving in Singapore ealier this year, and my ccolleagues observed coral spawning here in March. Check out my coral spawning post if you're interested

Diving in Singapore waters can be challenging due to the lower visibility. This is caused by heavy traffic of naval craft of all sizes. About 2 years ago, my wife and I dived around Pulau Hantu. Visibility was poor and there were strong currents. We did not particularly enjoy that dive; but we had a great time with our fellow divers. We haven't returned to dive around Pulau Hantu recently. Singapore is taking additional steps to establish a marine sanctuary for the benefit of all divers around the Sisters' Islands. I hope you get a chance to return to Singapore to dive in the future.
PS: I checked out your comprehensive post on coral spawning. Enjoyed reading it. The accompanying photos were also great! Upvoted it.
