Hi,
Been scouring the board and I'm trying to make a final decision on a good spot for my first trip to the Philippines. I'm flying in and out of Manila and will be there for 9 days (not counting arrival and departure since I get in late and leave early). I've really been leaning towards spending the entire time on Malapascua but figured I would pose the question here as well. Doalityes it make sense to split my limited time between two places? I don't think I'm interested in the idea of Boracay, quality of diving is a factor and I've read there are better spots for diving. I'm ok with quiet and smaller.
As far as diving, I have my AOW and like to get a mix of macro and fish/pelagics. The idea of trying to spot the thresher sharks is intriguing, which is driving the idea of Malapascua. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
