Wake up on day two of our dive trip to a beautiful sunrise over Apo Reef National Park. Diving in Apo Reef is renowned for its incredible visibility, dramatic coral walls, and abundant marine life. This day includes four diving sites situated around Apo Island where you’ll have the chance to see sharks, rays, turtles, and much more! Note that the exact dive site is subject to change as we continuously monitor where the action is.
Dive sites: South Corner, Ego Wall, Mabuti, and Aladdin.
Another day packed with four dives; our third day of diving will take us to the expansive Apo Lagoon! Here you’ll have the chance to see the same large marine life as Apo Island, as well as smaller, rare creatures like the elusive ghost pipefish. The lagoon offers a pristine environment for snorkeling and a relaxing swim in the afternoon, and we’ll end the day with a night dive in a small fishing boat wreck.
