TOP 5 DESTINATION
The Philippines lies at the heart of the so–called Coral Triangle, home to more than three-fourths of the world's corals, and more than half of the world's coral reef fish. With 2,248,400 hectares of coral reefs, 500 species of corals and 2,000 species of fish, the country is part of the most fertile part of the triangle.
Puerto Galera's unique marine life merited the intensive survey and exploration made by divers from France and Switzerland who participated in the recent 2nd Objectif Atlantide Underwater Investigation.
Mounted by the Department of Tourism – Dive Philippines in partnership with the French association Objectif Atlantide, two multiple record holder free divers went head–to–head against scuba divers to solve a mystery by exploring the unique marine life of Puerto Galera.
At the heart of the Coral Triangle and at the skirts of the Verde Island Passage is Puerto Galera and its rich biological treasures, stunning seascapes, and scores of marine species. The island thus makes for a perfect environment to host 2nd Objectif Atlantide Underwater Investigation underwater exploration.
We will take this great opportunity to showcase the unparalleled beauty of our reefs and call to protect the vibrant biodiversity of our waters to the international community,"
