 The Tubbataha Reef is situated on the Cagayan Ridge, composing of

extinct underwater volcanoes. Being a true atoll structure, it is
believed that the atolls of Tubbataha were formed thousands of
years ago as fringing reefs and volcanic islands. This is based
on Charles Darwin's theory that atolls are formed when a volcano
erupts and afterwards an island is born. When the volcanoes became
extinct and the islands subsided over a long time, only the corals
remain, growing towards the sunlight. The very big corals seen today
surrounding the lagoons are originally the fringing reefs.
