Plongée à Apo Reef — Philippines
Apo Reef is the Philippines' largest coral reef system and second largest contiguous reef in the world. The walls plunge to 40m+ with grey reef sharks patrolling the blue edge and occasional hammerheads cruising past. Remote and current-swept, it rewards experienced divers with pelagic action that rivals the best in Southeast Asia.
