Queue list - places on request!

Experience - A diving trip to the Philippines is something you can do more than once and a liveaboard to the Tubbataha reefs in the Sulu Sea is perhaps the ultimate experience. Here in the middle of the sea, you can experience several different species of shark on one and the same dive. Sharks patrol the reefs and some of the species you may see are whale sharks, hammerhead sharks, thresher sharks, guitar sharks, tiger sharks, nurse sharks, silvertips, various reef sharks and many, many more. Today, Tubbataha reefs offer one of the world's best diving spots, where very few can come every year. The weather here makes it impossible to go for large parts of the year, which means that the reefs thrive and remain in very good condition. Only a few liveaboarders go here each year and it is often fully booked far in advance.

Tubbataha reefs in the Philippines are perhaps one of the world's most talked about diving destinations and there are reasons why. There are amazing coral walls, sponges, black coral and gorgonians extending from steep rock walls, echinoderms, octopuses, crustaceans and an incredible variety of fish color and enliven this environment. You are out in the middle of the Sulu Sea, far away from most things. Getting the chance to come here is incredible because there are very few boats that go here and they are often fully booked well in advance. We have a few places left on a diving trip to the Philippines with liveaboard to Tubbataha reefs, take the chance.
