This beautiful water helps to complete this divers paradise. The beautiful coral reefs go for miles, it is like you can see forever. These coral reefs are every color imaginable and they are teaming with over 2000 species of fish. These fish are every size and color, from the smallest tropical species, to the larger native beauties.. The outstanding flora and fauna help complete this scuba divers paradise.
Beautiful Tropical Fish Fill The Seas Of The Philippines
What underwater treasures these colorful fish are. So many species call these waters home. In addition to all the native fish, there are hundreds of species that migrate through this wonderful underwater world. It is no wonder that divers flock to the Philippines each year to share in this underwater experience. If you are a diver, you will want to join divers the world over, and enjoy this unique tropical wonderland.
Imagine the excitement of a diver arriving to the dive site for his first dive in this Philippine wonderland. One of the many amazing sites is the Yapak, Boracay area. Here you will find a deep wall that plunges over 100 feet. There, in the protection of this giant wall, are White Tip Sharks and Grey Reef Sharks. They cruise the area like it belongs to them, and in a way’ it does. Schools of over-sized tuna call these reefs home. Tropical fish of every color and size are waiting to show off their colors.

Feast your eyes on the Batfish, the Tuna, or the Unicorn fish. Delight your senses as you watch the Flutemouth, Barracuda, or the many varieties of the Moray Eels. If those are too common, there is always the large schools of Bannerfish or the unique Lionfish. Whatever you enjoy, there is a dive site waiting for you in the Philippines.

Great pictures and story !
Looks like a awesome place.
Steem on!
Thanks.
I highly recommend Coron in Palawan and The Scuba Pro in Batangas
and Siargao if you're into surfing
Thank you for the great information, and tips.
Amazing! Phillipines is definitely on the first place when I will be going to Asia :) Just recently, a friend of mine was telling me about scuba diving there, and how it is perhaps the best experience he ever had :)
Thanks for sharing. Philippines is definitely on my list.
It's a truly magnificent place to visit.
Provinces and beaches in the Philippines are beautiful indeed, but the main cities are polluted and the traffic is bad. Just always remember to be vigilant when the time comes and you visit the Philippines.
