Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park in the Philippines has been growing in popularity as a liveaboard destination. This UNESCO World Heritage Site [1] is renowned for its out-of-this-world biodiversity and is often referred to as the best place to dive in the Philippines. There are now around a dozen liveaboards to choose from, ranging from mid-range to luxury.
Tubbataha Reef is easier to get to compared to other world-class liveaboard destinations in the Coral Triangle, such as Raja Ampat, Solomon Islands, and Papua New Guinea. Fly internationally into Manila (MNL), then take a short flight to Puerto Princesa (PPR). Most liveaboards offer airport pick-ups, either free or with a reasonable surcharge.
A Tubbataha liveaboard is the only way to dive in this protected marine park. Note that the diving season in Tubbataha is brief, lasting only from March to June, with some trips available before and after the season. Book your Tubbataha liveaboard trip early to secure your spot!
Liveaboard Diving In Tubbataha Reef
While Tubbataha might not have the marine life density that Raja Ampat is known for, the "big fish" action in Tubbataha is more prominent. At certain dive sites, divers can spot various sharks, rays, and even whale sharks. Macro photographers will enjoy finding smaller creatures like nudibranchs, ornate ghost pipefish, seahorses, and frogfish.
