Best diving spots in the Philippines: Apo Island

My next diving destination i would like to share with you is called "Apo Island". This magic place is really laid back. In fact there is only electricity on the island until 22:00 pm so you will be forced to go "offline" which for sure is that what you are looking for when you choose to go there!

This is how it looks once you arrive by boat.

Marine Sanctuary

Apo Island has its own marine sanctuary to protect the turtles on the island. Seeing at least one of them in each dive during your stay is pretty much normal. Here a short video of me following one of them during its daily business:

Sardinedive

It was amazing to see the action going on under water while sardines are beeing chased by other (bigger) fish. In the video you can clearly see the sardines swimming for another day in their life. What a great moment to witness!

Ghost Fish

If you watch close enough you will be able to find the most amazing creatures under water. Just like this almos perfectly camouflaged ghost fish. It was the first time for me to see one:
