Malapascua: Special Combo
Malapascua & Ticao Pass & Critters
(14 days / 13 nights)
A spectacular 13-night voyage showcasing the very best diving in the Philippines.
Our Super Combo itinerary combines two of our signature voyages into one unforgettable 14-day, 13-night adventure. Starting in either Donsol or Dauin, the voyage travels through the Visayas and Bicol regions before finishing at the opposite destination. An additional night on board is included free of charge, allowing the complete itinerary to be enjoyed at a wonderfully relaxed pace.
This itinerary reveals the extraordinary variety of the Philippines’ underwater world. Discover fascinating macro critters around Dauin, swim beside Moalboal’s immense sardine ball, encounter the famous thresher sharks of Malapascua, and search for mantas and whale sharks in the rich waters of Ticao Pass and Donsol. Each day offers something completely different, while evenings bring the signature comfort and calm of Philippines Explorer TWO: sheltered anchorages, relaxed dinners, and uninterrupted rest.
Maximum 3 dives per day, often 2 dives only, leaving plenty of time to explore, unwind, and enjoy life on board.
Ideal for:
Divers, non-divers, families and small groups of friends. While the exceptional variety of diving makes the Super Combo a favourite for passionate divers, the relaxed pace and private-yacht atmosphere make it equally enjoyable for accompanying non-divers. If you want to immerse yourself in some of the finest diving the Philippines has to offer, while travelling aboard a boat that feels like your own private yacht, this is the trip.
