Team

One of the true pillars of Team Abyss since his return to Geneva in 1999, Philippe, Swiss, travelled the world for 5 years before deciding to live permanently in the Philippines for a period of 12 years. Philippe opened dive shops in the regions of Boracay and Busuanga and explored much of the archipelago during this time. Fanatical about his love of travel and diving, he enjoys nothing more than organising the somewhat complicated logistics of Team Abyss. Based in Geneva all year round, he also travels occasionally and works as a guide at different sites.
Head Office Agency Manager, Professional Instructor and Guide with over 3500 dives.

Born in 1963, Thierry started scuba diving at the age of 14. Passionate about the underwater world, he began accumulating dives and diplomas before finally obtaining in 1985 his MF2 / CMAS instructor certification. Soon after, he began specialising in technical diving and became an instructor trainer with TDI - SDI. In addition, he is also a DAN instructor and hyperbaric chamber operator. He spends most of his time on board managing diving expeditions in Madagascar, the Seychelles and the Eparses Islands. Thierry recently succeeded in obtaining the necessary authorisations from the French authorities to operate several expeditions to the Eparses Islands. He has also obtained government approval to operate cruises in Nosy Hara at the Northern end of Madagascar. As owner and skipper he will discover with you the Lost Islands in the Mozambique Channel and put all his experience at your disposal to ensure your cruise will be unforgettable.
