Considered as among the top diving destinations in the world, the Philippines has hundreds of dive spots that boast of marine life diversity higher than Australia’s Great Barrier Reef. The VISAYAS in particular, with its numerous islands, offers excellent diving and snorkeling. |
APO Island, a 72-hectare volcanic island off Oriental Negros, is known for its marine reserve and fish sanctuary. If you want to see lush coral gardens and wall reefs and variety of big fish, then this is your best bet. Take your pick from the nine dive sites around APO and get ready to meet hawksbill and green turtles, schools of jacks, big red snappers, groupers and a lot of clownfishes!

Lunch can be pre-arranged at one of the two resorts on APO, or you can bring your own packed lunch. Trust us to know the insider tips on where to stay, how to get there, and when best to go diving |

 For the non-divers, we will take you on a SNORKELLING TRIP you won’t forget! From Dumaguete, it’s a 30-minute drive south to Malatapay--the take off point, where a pumpboat will whisk you off to APO Island for another half-hour. Walk through the island's quaint village on your way to the marine sanctuary, a 15,000 square meter reserve teeming with colorful corals and aquatic life. Here you get the chance to snorkel to your heart’s content. Lunch is at the rustic Apo Island Beach Resort. And if you're still up for it, we challenge you to a 30-minute trek to the lighthouse, where you'll be rewarded with a panoramic view of the island. Spend the rest of the day swimming, beachcombing or just lazing at the white pebble beach before heading back to the mainland by mid-afternoon. |

Be ready to get wet and bring a lot of sunblock as the boat may or may not be covered depending on the number of divers onboard and the wind conditions.
