Verde Island's Diving, Philippines 2013 HD 1080p 

Awesome underwater videography! Great work, thanks for posting. It doesn't hurt that your shoot location happens to be the planet's epicenter for marine biodiversity. We dove her often back in the day. Hope to do so again someday soon. Let's all protect and preserve this incomprable, irreplaceable treasure.

Some of my original video footage from this trip is now exposed at the Natural History Museum of the Philippines in Manila as part of an interactive display with the visitors, which I hope will play a role in protecting this area of ocean; thanks to an agent of the Living Asia Channel who contacted me after seeing these images.

Dislikers are blind and nature wreckers! 🤨

Hi Eric, very nice video - how far are you from the shore to see this and how deep into the sea? interested to visit the island very soon. thank you

Hi Eric! I'm Regine Dela Peña, program researcher and production coordinator in the LIVING ASIA CHANNEL (LAC), a 24/7 cable and satellite television channel featuring the best of Asian travel, lifestyle and tour destinations. National Museum of Natural History (NMNH) of the Philippines, with the help of Living Asia Channel through Stagecraft International, is in the process of creating a Marine Gallery set to be built this 2017. There are sets of modules in the gallery that require audio-video footage from the shallow to deep part of the ocean and coral reef. In line with this, may I know if you have HD Underwater Videos that you are willing to donate? Also, I saw this video and I’m humbly asking for your consent to have the raw copies and let us use the footage for the aforementioned program. Rest assured that you will be credited and this will be used for the exhibit/museum purposes only (unless you decide to let us use also the videos for broadcast copy to be shown in some programs in our channel). We will highly appreciate it should you allow us to use any. For questions and clarifications please contact me here or at living_asia_channel@yahoo.com. Hope to receive your favorable response! Thank you so much!

how is this reef doing now?

Would you please tell me how to go to Verde Island from Makati? Thx.

it is so sad to think that this place is going to be extinct soon if we don't stop the pollution .

Hello Eric, Could you please share your camera name and settings. Video is very good. Thank you.

Hi Mr. Eric! Im a news writer fr the Phils. I wrote a story about the possible destruction of Verde Island Passage due to a proposed mining in one of the towns surrounding the passage. This is a great video, that's why i would like to ask for your permission if we can use this in our story? We will put your name over the video while we air it to let people know you're the one who took this. Thanks in advance! :)

Bravo Papa
