Marine life is abundant and overwhelming in Tubbataha. It would seem that the fish around here all live to a right old age as they seem far larger than in other parts of the country. Giant sharks, giant lapu-lapu(grouper), giant tuna, giant mantas all around. Their sizes are matched by the wide spans of giant sea fans and giant sponges. It is easy to lapse into superlatives when describing the underwater scene around here.

The only way to reach Tubbataha is by liveaboard.

All these reefs consist of vertical walls or very steep slopes and are rising from great depths. You must expect strong currents that might change directions so most dives are drift dives. I advise to bring a dive computer and a safety sausage or another signal device. Night dives are only possible if there is no current. Check before starting your dive and discuss who will pick you up, if a current springs up during the night dive.

The dive season usually runs from March until June. This time of year typically gives outstanding diving conditions clear skies, flat seas and excellent visibility (30 to 45 meters).

In order for paint to properly adhere to the surface (wood, brick, stucco, Masonite, cement board, metal, etc), it must be properly cleaned of all dirt, grease, oil, loose paint and other materials. One of the best ways to start the surface preparation is using a good quality pressure washer.
