Entrance is only P10 each. @Samara, hi! Tuka is the best snorkeling paradise in this side of Mindanao by far. I would recommend that you visit the place as early as you can in the morning and make the most out of your day trip there. :) bariless last blog post..<a href="http://www.gensantos.com/2008/07/my-journey-to-balut-island-the-series-on-board-mv-song-of-dolly/" rel="nofollow">My Journey to Balut Island, The Series: On board M/V Song of Dolly</a><div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1093','bariles'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('1093','bariles','@Arsenia, I don\'t think they allow overnight camping.

Thanks for blogging about Tuka Marine Park. This would be a great destination for our small clan next summer. We've been frequent tourists in Gumasa beach resorts for the past few years and I should admit that way back our first year, we were awed by the beautiful corals there while snorkeling. But as the years passed, the number of corals have been reduced and at most, dead corals were abundant. Not to mention that we barely see the usual starfishes recently this year. Anyways, I'd like to ask if we need prior reservations before getting there, and same with Arsenia's question, if we could stay there overnight. By the way, this is a great blog. :)<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1079','Samara'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('1079','Samara','My, my.
