Southern Visayas safari liveaboard, Cebu, Bohol, Negros
Southern Visayas safari liveaboard is an amazing diving trip that offers amazing diving in the central Philippines. You will experience some of the best diving to be found in this part of the Philippines. The Visayas is one of the large groups of islands in the Philippines and offers great diving trips with great variety. This tour starts in Cebu or Dumaguete and has several exciting stops along the route.
The western part of the island of Cebu offers fine diving at Moalboal. The large shoals of sardines that are normally found here can completely darken the light. The whale sharks in Oslob on southern Cebu and the muck diving in Dauin on Negros Island are also great experiences. There is also the small island of Apo Island. Apo offers fantastic reefs and lots of turtles. On this tour, there will often be diving at beautiful Bohol with the island of Cabilao. The island of Cabilao, which with its wonderful wall dives and fantastic slopes with white sand, can surprise enormously. Maybe you make a stop at the island of Balicasag but that depends on the permit as diving here is severely restricted today. Southern Visayas safari with a liveaboard is a delightful trip through Central Visayas. This is a tour that will offer you very mixed and varied diving.
Different tours different parts of the year
You can go on this tour during parts of the year. However, not when the Tubbataha Reef season is in progress. At that time of year (around March – June) all the liveaboards drive there instead. The number of days for your diving cruise depends on your wishes and the boat's schedule. On board you enjoy full board and relaxation and the crew will guide you to all the different dive sites to ensure you have a truly wonderful diving trip. Southern Visayas safari will give you amazing diving from your liveaboard. Everyone who dives can go along as the diving is essentially simple. Be sure to combine yours liveaboard and diving trip in the Philippines with visiting someone another place.
