1Monad Shoal, Philippines

Thresher sharks. Thresher sharks normally live in deep water and are nocturnal so can be a difficult spot for divers. Although they can be found elsewhere Monad Shoal is where they are most regularly sighted.

Monad Shoal was recently made a marine park in order to try and protect them. The best time to catch a glimpse of these sharks is before sunrise so this experience will require your alarm clock to be set early.
