 | | Atlantis Azores Charters Highlighted | Atlantis Azores has found its niche here in the Philippines and she and the crew continue to get rave reviews week after week. As we mentioned earlier, we wanted to take a little space here to focus on the different itineraries we have with Azores.
This month we will highlight the Tubbataha Reef itinerary. Tubbataha Reef is one of the most famous and popular dive areas in the Philippines. It is located in the Sulu Sea, 98 nautical miles (181 km) southeast of Puerto Princesa City in the Palawan Province. Tubbataha is in the centre of the Coral Triangle between Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. It has a very limited dive season and that, to some degree, causes it to be even more sought after. We are typically there from late March to early June each year.
The Tubbataha itinerary starts in Manila with a one hour flight to Puerto Princessa. You are met by a member of our staff and your luggage is loading into a private air conditioned van for the quick transfer to the Atlantis Azores. Boarding is late afternoon so the afternoon flight from Manila seems to work best. Azores departs immediately after boarding for the 12 hour journey to Tubbataha Reef... » Full Story?
