Sounds like a dangerous area...

Also in Sulu Sea.

You have to decide it yourself.
Incidentally, I have dived Davao and General Santos in Southern Mindanao and Surigao is Northern Mindanao. Camiguin is not very far from Mindanao.

Basilan for a foreign tourist.

Puerto gallera is definitely a sex tourist place. Lots of Asians go there and also dive. I found the dive sites to be pretty poor except for Verde Island. I'd say go to anilao across the way if you are there for diving. Buceo has access to the good ones. Aianar is a nice resort. HOME | Dive Anilao Nudibranch capital of the world

Do you have a USA passport or a China passport (or maybe a third country)?

LOL.
What difference does it make on travelling to Philippines?
Do you think the kidnapper would check the potential target's passport first? Highly unlikely.
