Our Trip
We're going to see the Thresher Sharks.
Malapascua is one of the few places in the world where divers can reliably encounter Thresher Sharks in their natural environment. Every morning these graceful sharks visit a cleaning station just offshore, creating one of the most unique wildlife experiences available to scuba divers.
We'll begin our adventure in Cebu before heading north to the island of Malapascua, where we'll spend several days diving from our beachfront resort. While the Thresher Sharks are the stars of the trip, the surrounding reefs are equally impressive, featuring vibrant coral gardens, colorful reef fish, macro critters, and beautiful tropical waters.
Outside the water we'll enjoy sunset cruises, island relaxation, beach BBQs, oceanfront dining, and plenty of time to enjoy the laid back atmosphere that makes the Philippines such a special destination.
This trip combines incredible shark encounters, beautiful reefs, luxury accommodations, and unforgettable island experiences in one of the world's premier dive destinations.
