To date, Apo Island is one of the most successful conservation stories in the Philippines. Marine Sanctuary was one of the first sanctuaries in the Philippines, where a maximum of only 15 divers are allowed at a time.
As a ‘no fishing zone’ it promotes & helps the regeneration of the fish stock. This site is world famous among dive enthusiasts as the clown fish capital of the world.
