Philippines Philippine SeaCan only be reached by Pump Boat from Dumaguete or nearby towns. We stayed at Atmosphere resort, where a 40 min trip led us to a very different underwater world, compared to the muck diving along the nearby coast. A lot of backpackers tend to stay on the island.
Underwater there is the most beautiful unspoilt coral and more turtles than you could possibly dream of.
