Dive In Anilao For More Macro
Anilao is a paradise for macro lovers and underwater photographers. Known as the birthplace of scuba diving in the Philippines, it offers an impressive range of dive sites teeming with critters like nudibranchs, frogfish, rhinopias, and mimic octopus. The reefs here are vibrant and healthy, and the black sand slopes are perfect for macro and muck diving. With calm conditions and short boat rides to dive sites, Anilao is a top destination for both seasoned divers and beginners looking to explore the small wonders of the underwater world.
We have a lot of trusted partners in Anilao! Contact Us to know more!
Snorkeling With Whale Sharks In Oslob
Optional excursion on the last day, which is a non-diving day.
Fishermen in the province of Oslob started feeding whale sharks in 2011. Since then the sharks have become regular visitors to the area and sightings are almost guaranteed on a daily basis. Over the last 10 years, the local Oslob community have developed a carefully monitored whale shark snorkelling experience which is sufficiently managed to allow for safe whale shark interactions, both for the whale sharks and for visitors.
Example schedule for the day:
- 05:00am Breakfast available at the resort
- 06:00am Depart from the resort
- 07:30am Ferry from Dumaguete to Oslob
- 08:30am Beach set-up for snorkel
- 09:30am Snorkel with the whale sharks
- 11:00am Lunch break at the beach (BBQ)
- 13:30pm Ferry from Oslob to Dumaguete
- 15:00pm Arrival back at the resort
You will be given a detailed briefing before your trip, but please be aware that you will be asked to leave the water if you touch the whale sharks and that flash photography, the wearing of sunscreen, or the use of gloves is strictly prohibited.
