Best thing I can say is that I would go back in a heartbeat! The remodel of the boat is fantastic! Service and the diving are amazing! We saw sharks literally on every dive, and mantas multiple times. I can't say enough about the food either, excellent quality and always plenty.
I was on the ship to dive Tubbataha, and since it was a transition trip we also dove Colusa and Cagayancillo Islands. Tubbataha is spectacular! Be ready for drift diving past huge, magnificent walls, tons of fish, and lots of pelagic life. Colusa and Cagayancillo provide more of the same. All pristine reef environments with lots of pelagic life. Very abundent and healthy corals as well. The Philippines has 400 of the 500 species of coral found in the world.
The boat is large and comfortable, diving is from smaller boats with 6-8 people per boat. We dove in small groups of 2-4 divers with a divemaster for each group.
The water temp was a consistent 82F the entire time, (early June) and I dove with a 3mm wetsuit mostly for protection against stings, many people dove in shorts and a rash guard.
Currents are very strong all over the atoll, so be prepared to be aware of your environment at all times, and be sure to stay with your group!
