Seahorse Tours and Souvenirs is proud
to present to our guest the very best of Subic Bay.
We offer visitors to Subic bay a wide variety of activites and
adventures some that can only be done here.

Scuba
Diving
The tourism office for the area calls Subic Bay
the “Pearl of the Orient”
and much like a pearl, it value is hidden unless
you know where to look. While scuba diving is becoming
increasingly popular in the Philippines and more
international divers are arriving, the growth of
diving in Subic Bay while growing is doing so at
a slower rate. As a long time diver at Subic I find
this lack of respect as a diving destination a puzzle.
The area offers a wide variety of wrecks to dive
as well as reefs. |
Unlike
Coron where you ride for hours to get to a
wreck site, the majority of Subic sites are
within 20 minutes of the dive centers. In
addition, unlike most other places in the
Philippines, the dive boats used are conventional
boats not local banca. Certified divers will
find a wide range of dive sites to choose
from and some of the best
wreck diving in Asia.
This is a great place to leard how to dive.
If you are not sure if you want to take the
full training program, there is a program
called "Discover"
diving that gives you an introduction. |

Ocean
Adventure Park
ho said education has to be boring. Add a little education
about mammals and conservation to your vacation.
The
Ocean Adventure Park is a very good introduction to
marine conservation using large marine animals. The
leading stars of the shows are the False Killer whales
and the dolphins. Performing a number of times a day,
they entertain the crowds with feats of acrobats and
their swimming ability. The park also has small aquarium
that shows some of the marine life in the Philippines
and a small WIN |
(Wildlife in Need) area that cares for injured animals
from the surrounding Tours
available from Seahorse Tours and Souvenirs. |

Olongapo
and Subic Bay Freeport Night
Life
Click
here for Barrio Barretto
Pier One Subic Bay
There is a
wide variety of nightlife available in the
Subic Bay area. At the height of the US military
presence in Subic, most Filipinos generally
looked at Olongapo with disgust. They saw
that it was there mostly to cater to the carnal
needs of the American sailor. There was hundreds
of clubs located outside the main gate,
|
|
in
Barrio Barretto, or in nearby Subic. When the Navy
departed the Mayor of Olongapo started to clean
up the image of the city. Faced with lack of customers
and government pressure, the establishments that
provided such services soon were gone from downtown
Olongapo. Added to these buildings are the Navy
recreational services activities that were deserted.
With the economic recovery of the area and a healthy
population of young people, many of these empty
buildings have reopened to meet the needs of the
young Filipino. |
