The Philippines
It’s a truly wondrous experience - swimming and snorkeling in turquoise lagoons among coral reefs and marine life, combined with guided hikes to scenic inland sites. You’ll be treated to a comprehensive immersion in nature at its most fascinating places. We’ll be staying at two different resorts so we can encounter more of the Philippines.

We’ll fly to Cebu, then go to the luxurious Kasai resort in the Moalboal area for four days. We will swim over one of nature’s most unusual phenomena – enormous schools of sardines that make you feel like you’re floating above a cloud.

We’ll have a full day on a boat at Pescador Island, during which we’ll be swimming and snorkeling around the colorful coral reefs that surround the island.

We’ll go canyoneering to Kawasan Falls – hiking, climbing, jumping from cliffs and swimming in rivers – then relaxing in the flowing waters of the reserve as we take in the spectacular scenery.
-
After a day of swimming and snorkeling with whale sharks, we’ll take the ferry to the Dumaguete region, where we’ll stay at a different resort for another four nights.
