Apo Reef

Philippines

Apo Reef is a coral atoll off the west coast of Mindoro in the Philippines, the country's largest atoll-type reef and a protected natural park. Declared a national park in 1996, it shelters sharks, turtles, rays, and dense coral cover across three islands and a lagoon. Expedition and dive visitors come for world-class snorkeling and diving on the reef walls and the chance to see marine megafauna in a protected environment.
