Trip Leader: Troy Allen
The Visayas are a collection of islands in the center of the Philippines archipelago. These islands are home to some of the best scuba diving the country has to offer. For the wide-angle lover enjoy soft coral covered walls, black sand dives, Thresher sharks, huge schools of sardines, turtles, schools of jacks and whale sharks. On the macro side there are fascinating critters such as waspfish, ghost pipefish and many other unique bottom dwellers offering lots of diversity. Areas such as Apo Island and Bohol in the southern parts of Visayas reveal an underwater paradise with vibrant coral reefs and diverse marine life. Your home for 10 nights is the Philippines Aggressor, built and powered for comfort, safety and stability. There is a beautiful spacious salon, sun deck with shading, chaise lounges and deck chairs, bar, and grill. The yacht is diesel powered, cruises at 10 knots.
