Dive-site story
Situated along the southeastern coastline of Mactan Island facing the Hilutungan Channel, this site features a fringing reef flat that transitions abruptly into a steep coral wall. Divers drift along coral heads, sponges, and sea fans that cling to the drop-off while watching for small macro critters tucked into crevices.
