Coral Reef Safari offers a guided scuba experience through the Verde Island Passage — one of the world’s most biodiverse marine corridors. Departing from Puerto Galera, we focus on full-day adventure diving at the least explored parts of the region: the seldom visited Islands of Calapan and the iconic Verde Island.
These islands sit at the heart of a globally significant marine region yet remain largely untouched by regular tourism. Their isolation creates a rare sense of space and quiet — ideal for divers seeking adventure away from crowded sites.
Led by experienced naturalists and dive professionals, guests enjoy small-group diving while learning about coral reef ecosystems, marine wildlife, and the importance of Marine Protected Areas.
Every safari contributes directly to reef conservation, with 100% of profits reinvested into local marine protection through Blue Alliance Philippines.
