I believe the dive site in Donsol is called Manta Bowl... But I'm sure one of the PPDers can correct me if I'm wrong....:coffee:


yup its manta bowl, near ticao island. I was there 1quarter 08, managed to snorkel with 7 whale sharks and hit mantas 2 out of our 3 dives. 5 different mantas at different times, one stayed with us for close to a minute.

School of mantas i saw in malapascua.

I was there April, that was towrds the end of the season already but still managed to swim with 7 whale sharks. Note: Practice your swimming skills, it'll be a scramble when a spotter has a sighting.

I think January is start of the season, maybe even clearer waters and less visitors.

Dive Manta Bowl, ticao island had pretty good dives there. I recommend Steady Eddie dive center.. cheap rates and will go even with minimal divers on board. :)

Good Luck
