Tubbataha Reef

[Capt. Peter]

Is anybody interested in 3-tanks day trips from Puerto Princesa (Palawan) to the world-famous Tubbataha Reef?
We are working on a project to make it possible.

Agree with Tippy, my wife and I are interested in a trip to Tubbataha.

Sounds interesting. Would that be on a regular basis ?

Hello Virginie,

we are at present working on this project, but as it is very complex this will still need time.
If all goes according to plan, we will offer daily trips, of course depending on the weather and sea conditions.

I am a bit confused. Tubbataha Reef is a UNESCO World Heritage site with restricted diving that is only accessible by liveaboards. As far as I can tell, the national park controls fishing and diver permits. From Puerto Princesa, its about a 10± hr trip to Tubbahata. What type of dive project are you considering?

Hello Charlier,

the Great Barrier Reef, Rock Islands in Palau, Mt. Kinabalu, etc. are all UNESCO World Heritage sites and have thousands of visitors every year.
The problem with the Tubbataha Reef is that it is far away from land and we are checking the possibilities and interest in day-trips.
Of course, we will only start this project once we have all necessary permits and licences.
Up to now only the safari-boats are there as they have no competition. Also there are no fast and safe boats for this kind of trip in PP.
