I saw your dive schedule
Why not put the Philippines in your list........
just a suggestion........
Yes I have looked at Malapascua Island this year but decided to head to Wakatobi.....one problem at Malapascua....no fresh water....not lookiing forward to 10 days of showers in brackish water.....but maybe 2008.
I would suggest you dive at Tubbataha Reef if you like big stuff (manta,sharks,turtles sometimes whalesharks) for colorfull reefs nice soft corals ghost pipe fish, harlequine shrimps try Apo Island Dumaguete, macro organisms go to Anilao or Puerto Galera. Hope you visit the Philippines again
What type of Sharks do they have at Tubbataha Reef?....The reason I am interested in Malapascua are the Threashers....looking to go in Sept or early Oct of 08.I would suggest you dive at Tubbataha Reef if you like big stuff (manta,sharks,turtles sometimes whalesharks) for colorfull reefs nice soft corals ghost pipe fish, harlequine shrimps try Apo Island Dumaguete, macro organisms go to Anilao or Puerto Galera. Hope you visit the Philippines again
Our publisher is traveling to Anilao/Maricaban area in the Philippines in 3 weeks and will do a full Resort Review with a truckload of photos here.
In 2 weeks a similar comprehensive review of a resort in Sabang in the Philippines will also be posted.
great!... looking forward to that review... ive been diving anilao and sabang for quite sometime now... visited sabang early this year... sabang was a lot more beautiful several years back... the typhoon that hit the area last year wrecked most of the corals there... i suggest that while in sabang to check out verde island
Guaranteed to see white tips, gray reefs , black tips sometimes whale sharks.
Tubbataha is our version of Palau but with the corals.
