WHY GO TO THE PHILIPPINES FOR DIVING?

The best way to answer this is to put you in touch with anyone who's been there.  But, the second best way is to blatantly make this statement:

"After you've seen the big animals in Palau and Yap, discover everything else you've missed in the Philippines."

1. Wide diversity of marine life not found anywhere in Micronesia. The "PI" has over 7100 islands, warm waters, and a truly amazing selection of marine life second only to Indonesia. 

2. Many differentof dive destinations, all featuring their own particular attractions.  Malapascua for Thresher sharks,   South Leyte for Whale Sharks, Dumaguete for amazing macro and small critters, Bohol for great reefs, etc.  Puerto Galera and Anilao for quick 4 day getaways.   All of these destinations offer many other attractions.

3. It's CHEAP (oops, I mean inexpensive) when you compare the overall price and what's included, etc., compared to almost anywhere in the region.

4. It's easy to get there.  There are flights on United and Philippine Airlines every day from Guam.

5. Very little experience is needed as almost all of the diving is no deeper than 70 ft.  Translation: very long bottom times. 

5. And best of all, UNCROWDED divesites, which is a rare occasion in Palau.

We've got more experience (by far) sending divers there than anyone else on the island.
