Explore the Philippines Diving Delight at Malapascua Island

As a tourist destination, the Philippines do not automatically spring to the holiday-maker's mind. And yet, this tropical archipelago offers a myriad of as-yet undiscovered adventures; from the ravishing reefs hiding wrecked Spanish galleons in their sea bed, to jungles abounding in exotic flora and fauna, to exciting geological formations and volcanoes. This natural paradise has tragically been subject to much political and natural upheaval over the years, from which it is still recovering. As such, the lack of a tourist boom is actually beneficial to the country as a whole while providing a vista of opportunities for the discerning tourist eager to explore destinations off the beaten track.




Malapascua Island is one such gem in the rough, especially for diving enthusiasts. The little island is located at the northern tip of Cebu Island, in the middle of the Visayan Sea. It is a very small and compact little bit of land, being only 2.5 km long and 1 km wide, but it is fast becoming the premier diving destination of the Philippines. The island's Bounty Beach is a sprawling stretch of powdery white sand surrounded with beautiful reefs that tinge its seas in luminescent aquamarine. It is famous for its diving spot of Monad Shoal, which is an underwater plateau, frequented by the rarely sighted thresher sharks and manta rays. The island also has three ancient ship wrecks which adventurous divers can explore for buried treasure. Many diving shops have sprung up around this area, providing excellent facilities for divers.




The resorts of this charming little isle meld seamlessly into the local settlement of eight hamlets, without despoiling its culture or ambience. The people largely thrive on tourism and fishing and are friendly enough to invite visitors to engage in their village sports and festivities. It would be well for visitors to repay their hospitality by respecting local modesty and customs; skimpy bikinis and topless sunbathing for females would be insensitive toward the conservative locals who are still adapting to foreign intrusion on their traditional home.




For business and leisure travelers wishing to take in the attractions of both the city and its rural islands should opt for centralized serviced apartments Makati City, as this cosmopolitan slice of the industrial Manila metropolis is an ideal access point. The Ascott Makati at the heart of the city's CBD is one of the most luxurious and ideally situated among Manila furnished apartments, making a home away from home for the jet setting business executive.

Local Philippines: Speechless in Samal

A group of islands in southern Philippines is considered a playground for pleasure. It is frequented by tourists who want to escape the hectic life in the metro. Travelers in this heavenly destination are overwhelmed with the richness of its natural resources and biodiversity. Pristine beaches harboring abundant marine life, unspoiled caves serving as a sanctuary for a colony of bats, and world-class resorts offering comfortable accommodations are too much to ignore even for the most demanding and meticulous travelers. The place is known as the Island Garden City of Samal.




Once isolated from the outside world, Samal is now within reach, thanks to improvements in the public transport system. Davao City is the jump-off point to this paradise. It is accessible by air, land, and water travel from other major cities across the country. There are daily flights to Davao from Manila while established entry points to the island are always in full operations, so getting to Samal is not a problem.




Here is a travel guide to help you prepare for you ultimate vacation in Samal. The following are some of the astonishing attractions in this heaven on earth.




Bat Sanctuary
Get up close and personal with one of the world's most hated and misunderstood creatures at the Bat Sanctuary in Barangay Tambo. Monfort Cave was recently cited by the Guinness World Records as the world's largest sanctuary for Rousetteus amplexicaudatus, or Geoffrey's Rousette Fruit Bat. The Texas-based Bat Conservation estimated that there are some 1.8 million bats living in the cave. The recognition has driven local and international efforts to protect this amazing natural wonder.





Igacos Mangrovetum
Another interesting attraction in Samal is the Igacos Mangrovetum, the first of its kind in Mindanao. Accessible via a ten-minute boat ride from Davao City, the ten-hectare sanctuary serves as a laboratory for various studies on the Philippine mangrove ecosystem. The mangrovetum, which also serves as a conservation site for birds, was established in 1991 thru the initiative of the Mama Earth Foundation.





Aundanao Fish Sanctuary
For water recreation enthusiasts, diving at the Aundanao Fish Sanctuary is a must. The site, which can be visited any time of the year, allows divers to experience a close underwater encounter with Samal's rich marine resources such as the pelagic fish, turtles, sweet lips, and groupers. The magnificent coral reefs also make diving at the Aundanao Fish Sanctuary a once-in-a-lifetime experience.





Sanipaan Shoal
Now you see it, now you don't. This aptly describes Sanipaan Shoal, one of the premier dive sites in Samal. The sandbar is also called the Vanishing Island as it disappears during high tide, creating a visual illusion that often leaves visitors in awe. There elevated cottages that are for rent in several parts of this 80-hectare shoal.




Caracoles Festival
There's more to Samal other than beaches and caverns. The island is also home to a number of colorful festivals, including the Caracoles Festival. This annual festival is held on the 28th and 29th day of April as a thanksgiving celebration for the island's abundant marine resources. The highlight of the festival is a parade participated by people dressed in bright costumes depicting various sea creatures living in Samal.




With these wonderful attractions, it is no wonder, then, that tourists in Samal always end up speechless.
