tubbataha reef "do you know that this reef belong to Minsupala?"

The name 'Tubbataha' is a Samal word for "long reef exposed at low tide". Samals are seafaring people of the Sulu Sea. Cagayanen people who are more geographically associated with Tubbataha Reefs referred the Park as 'gusong'.

Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park is home to some of the most beautiful coral reefs in the world. Rising from the volcanic depths of the Sulu Sea in the western Philippines, these magnificent atolls encompass an astonishing diversity of marine life.
The park is an underwater sanctuary where nature can thrive. Tubbataha is the Philippines' only marine natural Park and is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a place of global importance, being preserved for generations to come.
From majestic whale sharks to elusive seahorses - Tubbataha supports an unparalleled variety of marine creatures. Colourful reef fish crowd corals growing in the shallows while sharks and manta rays haunt the steep drop offs to the open sea.
A team of rangers are stationed on the reef year-round and, from March until June, divers visit Tubbataha to experience the wonders of this unique underwater world.

tausug purul

Tausug amuna in manusiah Pa Allahu taala nagmamabugah, Malingkan bang magkahina. Umbul ALAS ha dunya hiluhala.

Tausug bang magkasipug kabuhi' di mag-ikut, Ha ngan sin pagbaugbog mangako baran malupog.

Tausug bang bagayun Puti' pangatayan pakitaun, Malaingkan bang buli' pugayun Nyawah di' niya pag-ugun.

Tausug mangi' ampa marayaw, Mahatul ampa lingug. Mahatul bang marayaw ka-agi, sagawah lingug bang magkajangki.

Tausug bang di pagka-amuhan Hipagpamung in ha pangatayan, Malaingkan bang pagkasulutan Umunung sambil paliyangan.

Tausug kunuh gagandilan, Magbunuh in katagihan, Baran dih pagkadaplisan Pasal mataud in kakupalan.

Daing sin waktu nakauna pa, Tausug nabantug na, Way pag-ug sin nyawa Sakatan misan sikatuna.

kastila, milikan iban jipun, Tausug mahunit daugun, Satru' in paglagutun Bang sila pagbugaun.

tausug marayaw kasuddahan, Magbagay dih pagkarapatan, Bang wayra katitipuhan, Sampay kamatay "bagay" niya unungan.

Hulah ko

Oh hula` hababaan hangin, Bansag na isab in ngan mu kahapun, Biyunuh kaw tahunan, Piyagtuyuan kaw biyaugbugan, Dain ha pamissukuh sin mga satruh. Oh Hulah, Tanyag Nakapakain na in dayaw mu, Lingkat mu nalawah na, Lummi' in timayimbabaw. Natanug kaw ha dunya..

Oh hulah pusaka.. Kamaasan in nagbayta' Kaabutan ku pa baha' In dayaw iban lingkat mu? Ha supaya ku hikasuy-suy Ha mga lungguh ba'go..
