Location

Solitude One cruises Palau between late September and March, and the Philippines (Tubbataha, Visayas and Leyte) between April and September.

Dive Overview

Palau: Sharks, mantas, eagle rays, jellyfish, turtles, huge schools of fish and, occasionally, whale sharks and whales. Also excellent for drift dives.

Philippines: Tubbataha hosts large marine animals such as sea turtles, manta rays, and a variety of sharks. In general, diving the Philippines means access to a wide assortment of marine environments, such as coastal reefs and steep walls and pinnacles.

Food & Drinks

Taking a lot of pride in the designs of a proper kitchen, choice of ingredients and the types of treats offered between meals and dives, you'll always be spoiled for choice. Meals are carefully planned and constructed to make sure all palates are taken into consideration. Great pride goes into the preparation of these meals and special diets are attended to, so they can look after you well. They make sure the pantry is well-stocked, a wide selection of beverages at your disposal, and there will always be something for the peckish, even in the wee hours of the morning The Bar serves a good selection of spirits, wines and beer, readily available to you at an additional cost.
