Hidden Depths Dive Tours donating £50 to Typhoon Appeal for every Philippines booking taken

UK based tour operator Hidden Depths Dive Tours are to donate £50 to the Philippines Typhoon Appeal for every Philippines booking that they take.

Their ‘Philippines Secrets Dive Safari’ tour will take divers from Donsol through to Ticao Island and then on to Malapascua.

April & May 2014 tour dates can be found on the Hidden Depths website & trips start from £1,735 which includes flights, accommodation & diving.

The Philippines has 7,107 islands and only 2,000 of these are inhabited. Roughly 70% of the Philippine Islands are still secret to the world. Donsol is renowned as the whale shark capital of the world where the highest congregation of whale sharks can be found during the season of November to June; Ticao Island is where the Manta Bowl lies and this is the Philippine’s capital for Manta Rays. Manta Rays may be the staple, but since the Ticao Pass is characterized by cool waters, strong currents, and cleaning stations, other sharks and pelagic creatures like the whale sharks, threshers sharks, and hammerhead sharks drop by too. Malapascua is the only place in the world where Thresher Sharks can be spotted all year round.

In between Ticao Island and Malapascua is a channel with several small islands along the way. These islands are pristine, untouched, and generally uninhabited. The Hidden Depths safari tour will take you from Ticao Island to Malapascua (or vice versa) and will have you dive places that have been kept secret for generations.
