Highlights
Operating since 1998, MY Resolute is one of the longest-running liveaboard vessels in the Philippines. With a highly experienced crew on board, the boat visits Tubbataha from March to June. This UNESCO heritage site offers pristine dive conditions and shark sightings on almost every dive, with the chance of encountering white tip, grey reef, nurse, and hammerhead sharks. From July- to October, M/Y Resolute relocates to the island of Cebu for diving in the Visayas to see whale sharks, thresher sharks, and colorful critters. The ship then navigates to Apo Reef, offering the chance to dive with hammerheads, reef sharks, and other pelagic life.
Topside, the MY Resolute liveaboard caters to just 16 guests. There are 8 comfortable cabins available, each with individually controlled AC and en-suite bathrooms. Meals are served in the open-air dining room, and dinner is usually a five-course buffet consisting of 2 meat dishes, 1 seafood, soup, and vegetables. Special dietary requirements are catered to with advance notice. The ship's bow offers loungers and is a great place to soak up the sun, and the indoor salon offers a cool area with an entertainment system and a camera room. The large dive deck is located at the back of the boat and offers ample space for kitting up and individual gear storage.

Unforgettable experience
Whalesharks! My last time seeing a Whaleshark was almost a dacade ago. I am so lucky with Resolute this week that we saw whalesharks 3 times! I got a really good video. I enjoy the whole week with the professional guides and organisation that makes it a very safe, well-organised, joyful and magical experience. The food was fantastic as well, totally exceeded my expectations. Dive, eat, sleep, repeat. Simple and happy.

Amazing! Must do!
I had an amazing experience on the Resolute liveaboard in Tubbataha. The diving was truly world-class — pristine reefs, incredible visibility, and a great mix of pelagics and macro life. Every dive felt well-planned and safe. The crew were outstanding — professional, attentive, and genuinely warm. The dive guides were knowledgeable and did a great job adapting to different diver levels while ensuring everyone had a great experience. The boat itself was comfortable and well-maintained. Cabins were compact but functional, and the common areas were perfect for relaxing between dives. Food was consistently good with plenty of variety, and they were accommodating of dietary needs. What stood out most was how smoothly everything was run — from dive briefings to logistics, it felt effortless as a guest. I dropped my gopro on the trip and the boat manager was kind enough to send out a message as well. Overall, a fantastic trip and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking to dive one of the best sites in the world.

Appreciate Resolute and Manager-Karla
Really like boat manager Karla and dive guide Gilbert. Food there is amazing! It's a pity no whaleshark, but no blame to anyone. Cabin is not perfect but clean enough, though it's better to change new sheets and towel for the future.
