Dive with Thresher Sharks in the Philippines and Save 10% with Dive Worldwide
Head to Malapascua, a must dive location in the Philippines, and stay at the private hillside Tepanee Beach Resort to enjoy savings of 10%.
Located on Logon Beach in the south of the island, the resort offers panoramic views of the ocean, its own private beach and world-class diving opportunities at Monad Shoal.
Tepanee features a choice of superior and deluxe detached cottages or standard rooms complete with thatched roofs, solid wooden floor, bamboo furnishings, air conditioning and a private balcony. The dive centre, Thresher Shark Divers, is a PADI 5-star Instructor Development Centre (IDC) and Tec Rec Facility and is just a two minute walk away along the popular Bounty Beach. A comprehensive range of courses are available here including the unique Thresher Shark speciality created by the owner and written in conjunction with PADI. The dive shop also has a bar and restaurant, Oscars, which is the main social hub for divers during the day and evenings.
Guests can enjoy up to four daily boat dives on board the dive centre’s traditional style banka boats operating to the popular dive sites. Divers can expect to observe sharks, mantas and wrecks, hunt for critters or enjoy the beautiful colours and life on the reef. It is necessary to be up early though to have the best chance of seeing the nocturnal thresher sharks who visit the Monad Shoal cleaning stations each morning.
Other highlights may include: the incredible diversity of Gato Island; mandarin fish at Lighthouse (dusk dive); and hammerheads at Kimud Shoal.

Over the next 12 months, specialist scuba holiday company Dive Worldwide will be supporting Bite-Back Shark & Marine Conservation with donations collected from client bookings to any one of its stunning dive destinations around the world. The independently-owned operator expects to raise £3000 for the UK charity.
Manager at Dive Worldwide, Phil North, said: “We’re especially excited to work with Bite-Back and support its intelligent, creative and results-driven campaigns to end the UK trade in shark products and prompt a change in attitudes to the ocean’s most maligned inhabitant.”
Bite-Back is running campaigns to hold the media to account on the way it reports shark news along with a brand new nationwide education programme. Last year the charity was credited for spearheading a UK ban on the import and export of shark fins.
Campaign director at Bite-Back, Graham Buckingham, said: “We’re enormously grateful to Dive Worldwide for choosing to support Bite-Back. The company’s commitment to conservation helps set it apart from other tour operators and we’re certain its clients admire and respect that policy. For us, the affiliation is huge and helps us look to the future with confidence we can deliver against key conservation programmes.”
To launch the fundraising initiative, Phil North presented Graham Buckingham with a cheque for £1,000.
Visit Dive Worldwide to discover its diverse range of international scuba adventures and visit Bite-Back to learn more about the charity’s campaigns.
