I'll be travelling to Phil in November, and I was just wondering the following:
1. Are there still Thresher Sharks at Malapascua? I heard they may have disappeared.
2. What are the chances of seeing Whale sharks in Southern Leyte in Nov? I read they are at Southern Leyte (from Lonely Planet - please don't flame), but everyone I talked has never heard of that.
If the Thresher Sharks are not there anymore, I may just go directly to Apo Island in Negros. Was there 2 yrs ago and loved it.
Also, seen Sombrero Island being mentioned quite a bit in the forum; is it really good (say, compared to Apo Island) or is it mentioned often due to its proximity to Manila?
Appreciate any comment.
