Obligatory surcharges: Almost all of the places that (apart from the Tubbataha) we visit have no liveaboards operating in the area, this means that it is impossible upfront to tell what the surcharges like custom and immigration fees will be. M/Y Gypsy is not making any profit on any of these fees and these surcharges will be charged at the end of a trip. These and other cost like drinks, merchandise and crew tips can be paid in either cash or with credit card on the boat.
