Amazing island, superb staff and beach with lots of culture and wildlife. Stayed in budget room for 11 nights with my girlfriend because we couldn't leave. Thanks to the amazing dive staff GL and the excellent instructor Rico. I saw 8 whale sharks at Manta Bowl. Great diving at San Miguel island too. Lots of other things to do too.... More

We stayed for 4 nights in one of the beach front bungalows. The bungalows were cleaned every day and we found them very comfortable. The staff were always keen to help. The meals were of a buffet style, with a variety of different main meals and soup each night. We went diving with Jesse our dive guide, he took us... More

The local village children will probably find you and you'll be enchanted by them. Good for diving,... More

As the Philippines had just had a Typhoon we were concerned the diving would be affected and the long trip here would have been in vain. In fact a lot of people had... More
