Tubbataha sits in the Sulu Sea and is in the middle of the Coral Triangle between Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines. The Tubbataha Reefs National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The atolls are made up of the North Atoll, South Atoll, and the Jessie Beazley Reef to the northwest of the main atolls and are all part of the park. 

Visayas is home to some of the best scuba diving the Philippines offers. From soft coral-covered walls to black sand dives to Thresher sharks, huge schools of sardines, turtles, schools of jacks, and whale sharks. On the macro side, there are fascinating critters such as wasp fish, ghost pipefish, and many other unique bottom dwellers, offering lots of diversity.
