    Default Philippines Tubbataha Pix

    Another wonderful trip with the sea flat like mirror, the biggest ripples were created by occasional Dolphins & Flying-fish. Unfortunately, no pictures of them...cos I was snoozing. 6-7 days of diving covered North - South of Tubbataha in The Philippines (National Park).

    The average visibility 30-40m, it is so clear that you tend to go deeper & not knowing your depth. Pristine corals.

    Plenty of fishes that are not afraid of divers, sure you can get some good fish portraiture shots here. The big animals are:- Sharks (Black, White tip, Grey, Silky, Mantas, Hammerhead, Mobulus Ray...etc etc).

    Season starts: March - June (June being the end of the season expect higher rain falls). Tubbataha is only accessible by Live Aboard, 7-8 days would be just nice to cover all the sites.

    Pix below taken with my new toy. D200, Nexus. Coments are most welcome.

    Where's the hundred circling barracudas? (We almost always ended our Tubba dives with a sight of them?) Thanks for posting your images, makes me wish all the more that April 2008 came sooner.

    iDiveChick - Hi Eric, great photos!
    What outfit did you dive with?

    I was on M/Y VASCO, not the luxury type but decent/comfy enough. Others are Explorer Fleet.

    Next destination in July: Manado, LOB - Bangka Island & Lembeh Straits.
