Diving holidays in the Philippines
Experience the Philippines, a land of 7,107 beautiful islands, stunning beaches, pristine reefs and a diverse marine eco system, home to some of the finest dive sites in the world. Scientists have likened the huge diversity of marine life to that of the most prolific rainforests. Dive with the Dugongs at Dimakya Island, Thresher Sharks at Malapascua or snorkel with Whale Sharks at Sorsogon. For wreck diving enthusiasts do not miss the Japanese wrecks at Sangat. If you really want to get away from it all try the tiny island of Cabilao where the reefs are home to barracuda, sharks and large rays, or Balicasag Island, with its marine sanctuary and walls.
