Such an amazingly pristine environment, well protected and far from man in the middle of the Philippines’ Sulu Sea. Incredibly breathtaking! The abundance of reef sharks from what we saw, including sighting of several pregnant ones that look about to burst, seems indicative of a healthy marine ecosystem, from the corals to grazers and predators.
If you like Raja Ampat, you will like Tubbataha!
