Here's why Philippines is the TOP DIVING destination in the world 🇵🇭 Dauin & Apo Island diving

The town of Dauin in Negros Oriental is famous for having fantastic dive sites, and also for acting as the gateway to Apo Island.
Now, diving in both of these areas, it is clear as to why Philippines is ranked among the best places in the world to dive. And if you have watched Avatar: The Way of Water, you will immediately feel immersed in this video here!
This video is a bit different from the others I've made for the past year. It features more narration from me, and I hope you found it entertaining!

    Hey all! I hope you enjoyed this video! So it turned out quite different from what I initially had in mind. I did have some shots of me doing a bit of explaining, especially at the end, but I feel like the narration made the message more organised and better suited to be used throughout the video. Also, tiny error at the absolute end. The drone footage was supposed to be stabilised but it somehow wasn't.

    Being married to a Filipino, I first experienced diving in the Philippines and I agree with your assessment...it is the best diving in the world (and I've been a lot of places in 20+ years). I return every year and am happy to say I will be in Dauin again in 2024. Apo is the most beautiful coral garden; in my mind, it is more beautiful than Tubbataha and easier to get to.

    I've been to Tubbataha; the coral at Apo Island is at least as beautiful and in my humble opinion MORE beautiful...it definitely has more fish and critters. It is also cheaper and easier to get to. I will be returning for a repeat visit in 2024.

    Indonesia and Philippines, both are in the coral triangle. Ask regular, non-Scuba diving people to mention as many great and very well known diving areas around the world as they can, and for sure the average of all the good acceptable answers can be counted on just your one hand. Question: So Philippines often gets voted to the top for diving destinations around the world. BUT, gets voted by who? And do they even have the proper qualifications or professional knowledge so us ordinary people can rest asured that the winning votes were cast by the best qualified, and is most trustworthy. Simple answer: They are some of a few number of people who go and enjoy Scuba diving. So if you're one who can only name one great diving place in Philippines which happens to be the most well known around the world, then your knowledge and opinions on anything about Scuba diving would seem to be more unreliable than mine, a person who can't swim, and especially if you can't name at least 1 or 2 great and well known dive sites in Indonesia without Googling.
