Dive Ticao with Donsol

 

Whale Shark Sanctuary

These creatures have been frequenting the waters off Donsol, Sorsogon for generations and in 1998, the Philippine Department of Tourism declared this area an official sanctuary for the Whale Shark, thus protecting this fascinating species. These gentle giants arrive as early as November with the Peak Season running from February until the end of May, where the sea of Donsol is at its clearest and calmest. Local tourism officials and professional divers have established guidelines on proper whaleshark watching intended to maintain safety and defend the creatures from exploitation.

 

Manta Bowl is the Manta Ray capital of the Philippines, the habitat of the world's biggest ray. Ticao Pass, Masbate Island has one of the world's highest concentration of plankton due to the strong currents from San Bernardino Straight. These currents push large groups of plankton and other organisms to gather in the area, making this an idea cleaning and feeding station for the Manta Ray. The Pass is the deep sea "big-boys alley" which also attract Whalesharks, Hammerheads, Thresher Sharks and other pelagics.
