Discover the coral heart of the Philippines, the Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Spanning nearly a hundred thousand hectares, this breathtaking expanse of reef flats and walls of coral is one of the most productive coral reefs in the world. While there are bigger reefs elsewhere, few can match the diversity of its marine life.

Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park was inscribed into the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1993. With its extraordinary biodiversity and its relatively pristine state, its existence is of great importance in the global ecosystem. Around 700 species of fish and 360 coral species—about half of all known species—can be found here.
