2 Fun Dives with Malapascua's Thresher Sharks

Dive with Malapascua's famous thresher sharks! 

Malapascua is known as the only place in the world where thresher sharks can be seen every day. And you are very lucky - there has never been a better time to come for thresher sharks 😊 Sightings have been amazing, the best in the 20 years we have been here! 

The thresher sharks recently moved to Kimud Shoal from nearby Monad. Although it is an hour away, due to its special nature and given we don't want anyone to miss them, we now have a unique offering, a "Kimud Double Dive Guarantee" at no extra charge for anyone who has only one night on the island. So with TSD, you can be sure that we won't cancel the dive even if it's only you on the boat. 🦈🦈🦈

In recent times, we have been getting sightings throughout the morning, and so we usually do a double dive for thresher sharks. And since late 2022 we have been getting amazing sightings a new site, Kimud Shoal, as well as at the original site, Monad Shoal. The schedule varies day-to-day, and sometimes we have 3-dive trips or occasionally 1-dive trips. The dive usually leaves early, so you need to stay on Malapascua the night before. Find out more about thresher sharks and the schedule. 

Includes:

• Tank and weights
• Boat and DM
• Fuel surcharge for Kimud Shoal

Excludes:

• Park fees - PHP 600 or 700, depending on the site, good for the day, payable on site
• Nitrox (if required)
• Equipment rental (if required)

You may also book this and use it for a dive at any other site. 

Equipment rental and nitrox are additional and can be paid on-site or bought in advance.

Kimud Shoal is only 12m on the top of the shoal, but it is quite an advanced dive site, so for safety, Open Water divers need to do an Instructor-Led Dive or a Deep Adventure Dive; the Deep certifies you to dive to 30m in the future. You can also upgrade on arrival.  

If you have not dived in a while, for your safety, you may be required to do a check dive or a refresher in advance. It would be the day before as the shark dive is an early morning departure.

Please email us with any questions and your date of arrival: dive@thresherdivers.com

We look forward to seeing you soon on Malapascua 😊
