The Philippines are on of those countries that are blessed by nature. Bounty with natural resources and beautiful scenery. One of the country’s pride is Palawan. It is known for its crocodile farms, underground rivers, white sand beaches, coral reefs and indeed one of the country’s dive spot.
The beautiful dive sites are located from 10 to 40 minutes away from the beach by speedboat or “bangka” inside the Puerto Princesa Bay. The closest dive sites are White Beach and Red Cliff, both located inside Puerto Princesa Bay. These are preferred sites for open water training dives as they offer slopes and walls that begin 20 (7m) feet from the surface. Colorful reef fish are common and various coral colonies can be observed in one dive. Turtles and rays are usually sighted amongst soft corals and sandy portions of the site. Manta rays, whale sharks, hammerhead sharks and other megafauna have been sighted in these waters. But because these animals are wild and free-swimming, we cannot promise you an encounter or set a schedule of their appearance.
