baybayin ng 17,640 kilometro at 266 milyong
ektaryang coastal waters at 193.4 ng karagdagang
bahagi na nagmumula sa karagatan. Tinatayang
umaabot ng 18.46 milyong ektarya ang kabuuang
lawak ng karagatan kabilang ang 338,393 ektarya ng
latian at mga ilog imbakan na matatagpuan sa bansa.
Ang yamang tubig ng Pilipinas ay ang pagkakaroon ng iba't
ibang klase ng mga isda. At nakakatulong ito sa pagkakaroon
ng hanapbuhay ng mga Pilipino sa pamamagitan ng
pangingisda.

3. Tubbataha Reef Marine Park
This Unesco World Heritage-listed
marine park
is located in the Municipality of
Cagancillio, Province of Palawan.
Tubbataha is made of about
10,000 coral reefs lying in the
middle of Sulo Sea.
Tubbataha is a nesting place for
green sea turtles.
It has almost 500 species of fish,
about 45 species of birds,
9 species of dolphins and whales
and it has about 400 species of
corals.

4. Puerto Princesa Subterranean River
National Park
This great wonder of nature is another
sight to enjoy.
It is located in Palawan, Puerto Princesa,
about 50 kilometers north of the Capital
City.
It has about 8 kilometers of navigable
Underground River considered to be the
longest in the world and features a
limestone karsts mountain landscape.
The river winds through a cave before it
flows directly to the sea.
This underground river has several
chambers and also contains major
formations of stalactites and stalagmites.
Like the Tubbataha Reef, this nature park
is included in the Unesco Heritage List.

6. The whale
shark, Rhincodon
typus, is a slow-
moving filter feeding
shark, the largest
livingfish species. The
largest confirmed
individual was 12.65
metres (41.50 ft) in
length and the heaviest
weighed more than 36
tonnes (79,000 lb), but
unconfirmed claims
report considerably
larger whale sharks.
Whale shark spotting in Dorsogon became a word of
mouth passed on to every tourist exploring the
Philippines. As thousands of visitors arrive each season to
swim and witness their friendly behavior, the unknown
town of Donsol, in which its economy was initially reliant to
fishing and cottage industry alone, now benefits from
higher revenue brought by the presence of these giant fish
locally called "Butanding".

7. The Sinarapan (Mistichthys
luzonensis) is the world’s smallest
commercially-harvested fish endemic or
native to the Philippines. They are found in
the Bicol region in southern Luzon
island, particularly in Lake Buhi, Lake
Bato, Bicol River and other bodies of water
in Camarines Sur province.
Sinarapan are a type of goby and they are transparent, except for
the black eyes. The sinarapan is so tiny, they measure only 2.1-2.45
cm and have an average length of 12.5mm. The males of this
species are smaller, shorter and more slender than the females. A
school of sinarapan, approximately 100,000 to 500,000 individuals,
swim at an average depth of 7 to 10 meters. If placed inside a
tabletop aquarium, they live for only about 10 minutes

8. Pisidium – pinakamaliit na kabibe.
Tridacna Gigas – pinakamalaking
kabibe.

9. PEARL OF ALLAH – pinakamalaking perlas sa daigdig.
