Part One — Atlantis Resort, Puerto Galera (6 Days / 5 Nights)

Begin your adventure with a stay at the luxurious Atlantis Resort in beautiful Puerto Galera, including a special trip to Verde Island. This region is celebrated for its pristine beaches, incredible marine biodiversity, and world-class diving. Puerto Galera is a designated UNESCO Man and the Biosphere Reserve, recognized for its ecological richness and listed among the most beautiful bays in the world.

Nestled in the lush hills of Sabang Beach, Atlantis Puerto Galera is a dedicated waterfront dive resort just minutes from over 40 incredible dive sites. With its tropical gardens, modern amenities, and exceptional service, it offers the perfect blend of comfort and adventure.

Atlantis Puerto Galera Includes

5 nights Deluxe Room accommodations (double occupancy/twin share) · All meals at the Atlantis Restaurant (chef-prepared breakfast and three-course lunch and dinner) · Coffee, tea, and filtered water 6:00 AM – 9:30 PM · Unlimited internet access · Unlimited scheduled boat diving with up to four day dives and one night dive per day.

Part Two — Atlantis Azores Liveaboard (7 Days / 6 Nights)

The adventure continues as the group boards the Atlantis Azores liveaboard for a 7-day / 6-night expedition to Apo Reef and the Wrecks of Coron. Explore sunken World War II ships in Coron Bay and dive in the Philippines’ second-largest marine park — a true paradise for divers and underwater photographers.

The charter begins in Apo Reef, a spectacular marine sanctuary inaccessible to day boats from Mindoro Island. Expect encounters with white tip reef sharks, spotted eagle rays, hawksbill turtles, bumphead parrotfish, and sea snakes. We then explore the Wrecks of Coron, where WWII-era ships over 300 feet in length rest in crystal-clear water within recreational dive limits. Above the surface, towering volcanic cliffs and turquoise lagoons complete a view as mesmerizing as the dives themselves.

Atlantis Azores Includes

Deluxe Stateroom accommodation (double occupancy) · All meals and snacks onboard · Complimentary local soft drinks, beer, and social servings of wine · All diving (tanks, weights, boat, and dive guide) · Full access to the ship’s lounge, sun deck, and entertainment areas.
