What time does the boat leave on the day of departure/arrive day of arrival?
The ships embark for Tubbataha between 6-8 pm on the day of departure. Arriving guests are picked up at the Airport and transferred to the ship, assigned a dive crate and checked into their rooms. They have the whole afternoon at leisure to take in the city attractions, go last minute shopping for toiletries, etc. A pre- departure briefing will be done during the evening of arrival when guests will be asked to fill out forms and sign waivers, be given boat assignments and informed of dive schedules as well as ship/park safety regulations and procedures. On the day of arrival, the ship is usually in port by 6 am and guests are disembarked after breakfast . 8 am is the usual disembarkation time but guests who have later flights are free to remain on board until airport transfer time. Puerto Princesa Airport/ship transfers are included in your package.
