That is true! Even in Panagsama, pollution and human activities can be clearly seen. During our drift dives, we always bring a bag for the plastics and other wastes that we can pull from the corals.
How cool is that! These photos look great! Can't wait to be able to travel again (hard lockdown going on at the moment here). Always wanted to get a shot like that with a massive school of fishes. Been looking for whale sharks as well but no luck in seeing any when we travel. 😀
Good thing we are not in lockdown anymore so we can travel around Cebu, but it's difficult when you transfer to other islands. We have whale shark watching here, but I don't support it so I haven't visited it. I don't like them feeding the whale sharks because it disrupted their migration patterns and feeding behavior. We have other places here in the Philippines with whale shark watching as well and those places are in my plan to visit.
Haven't heard of feeding whale shark spots in Thailand. They seem to be quite rare to see even in the high seasons. We haven't done much diving though so maybe that is why.
As they shouldn't be fed. Here, one town became a tourist spot because of the whale sharks. Search whale shark watching in Oslob, Cebu. Those whale sharks stay in the area the whole year. They don't migrate anymore.
Hermosas fotos y que experiencia maravillosa, la naturaleza es tan preciosa y asombrosa, te felicito por tu marca y aunque no lo haces por fanfarronear practicar esa actividad requiere de coraje y buena condición física.
Thank you so much! Indeed, it requires courage and good physical condition, but I just want it to be fun for me. First, I have to overcome my fear of the deep waters. I love doing it though so when I overcome my fear, it was a liberating experience.
Amazing pics, I am very afraid of the sea, I think I suffer from thalassaphobia. Still, I find it amazing everything in and out of it, some of your photos managed to make me nervous.🏊
My friend told me that what makes these photos amazing is that they can't be faked. It's either you're really good at it or nothing. So it's understandable that some of the photos would really make those with fears of the sea nervous. I just have to overcome my fears and enjoy the waters more. First step is to right there, exposed to the sea, and then don't think of anything that will make you afraid.
I'm still not able to stay underwater for more than 1 minute and 15 seconds. I'm still far from the goal, but I'm practicing dry method to increase my breath hold.
Thank you! I'm glad they're trying to protect the area. It's actually a sanctuary. People are still allowed to fish only using a fishing pole or spear gun. Commercial fishing is not allowed.
Wowwwwwwwwwww😯
What a view...
Quite marvelous sight.
I love all of these but won't dare go close to even a river... That fear keeps saying I will drown 😂
Such a great experience @ybanezkim26, and stunning shots. The beaches in the Philippines are awesome do Dive. I will definitely be back here and explore more once everything is back to normal. ♥️
Hii! waww how impressive all these pictures, especially the video I think it is fascinating to admire all the beauty that exists in the ocean, I was struck by this little phrase:
You're just so small compared to the expanse of the ocean.
Because you are absolutely right, we are so tiny in front of such beauty as the ocean is, I'm glad you overcame your fear, I'm still working on that haha, thanks for sharing this experience with us! Greetings :)
Superb photos. The water there looks amazing but I'm a little surprised there wasn't more wildlife. Don't other bigger fish hang around waiting to scoff the millions of sardines?
Maybe that's the reason why the sardines stay in the area because they don't have bigger predators? I don't know. In terms of corals, the place is really teeming with life. But for bigger fishes, they're not present in the area. Unlike in Balicasag Island in Bohol where a lot of bigger fishes are present. Strange. I will research more about this.
I envy your life sir 😌😌😌, I can only hope that some day I will also dive in sea, but it's not happening anytime soon .
Good luck for your future endeavours👍 👍 👍
Can't wait for all the fish to join Hive from your t-shirt promotion
Just wait for their intro posts.
They have a higher chance of getting hooked
Is that supposed to be funny? 😂 You're growing old.
😂
They will probably be more coherent than many we see.... :-)
😂 Can't disagree with this! 🙈
Cute :D
@derangedvisions 😠
LOL
More like Flower Gay. 🤭
Those photos are so amazing. Swimming with the school of sardines looks so cool.
Thank you so much! I will never get tired of swimming with them.
Wow!! Just beautiful bro. Those pics are awesome.
Thanks! 🤗

Extremely beautiful photos, which show a fantastic world ... I hope we will be able to save our seas, but pollution is advancing day by day
That is true! Even in Panagsama, pollution and human activities can be clearly seen. During our drift dives, we always bring a bag for the plastics and other wastes that we can pull from the corals.
Proud to be in the Philippines! That is so beautiful.
It's something we can always be proud of.
Beautiful underwater scenes. !LUV that you shared this with all of us. You should be posting more of these... :)
!PIZZA
Thank you! Expect more like this in the coming months. But diving is really expensive so I have to save for them.
I haven't tried diving; looks like fun. :)
It's so much fun! You'll be amazed by how your body is able to adapt to new environments.
I bet it is. :)
I love the water, love swimming, and the beach so I guess I will love this also. Maybe... haha...
I have a cousin who dives a lot; he learned while still a student in Dumaguete City. Maybe he can teach me.
@ybanezkim26, you've been given LUV from @juanvegetarian.
Check the LUV in your wallet. (1/3)

I currently cannot even hold mine for 30 seconds.
Okay, I cannot even swim, and thus I have not done diving so far.
I'm still not able to stay underwater for more than 1 minute and 15 seconds. I'm still far from the goal, but I'm practicing dry method to increase my breath hold.
DO NOT FOLLOW any instruction and DO NOT CLICK on any link in the comment!
Epic shots. So glad to see there are still places in the word with so many fish. Feels encouraging.

You won't drown if you know how to swim.
Maybe I will start learning in smaller swimming pools...
It's humbling to acknowledge that we are so tiny in this big big universe hehe 😌
YOUR PHOTOS ARE CRAZILY AWESOME!!! Nindut kaayo!!! Amazing kaayong dagat ug and mga sardines 😍😍😍Chuy kaayo @ybanezkim26
Thanks! Special thanks to @indayclara for taking most of the photos.
Such a great experience @ybanezkim26, and stunning shots. The beaches in the Philippines are awesome do Dive. I will definitely be back here and explore more once everything is back to normal. ♥️
Thank you, @trangbaby! Once you visit, tell me so that we can have a travel collab. I can show you around.
It's very nice of you. Yes, sure, I will let you know; hopefully the end of the year, we're able to travel internationally.
You are a lucky person 😍😍 Enjoy
Thank you!
