Dive-site story
Located off the coast of Puerto Galera near Escarceo Point, Boulders is defined by massive submerged rock formations piled across a sandy seabed. These dramatic rock structures create intricate crevices, overhangs, and swim-throughs coated in vibrant soft corals and sea fans. Currents pushing through the Verde Island Passage feed rich marine communities here, making it a reliable spot for both macro critters and passing pelagic life.
Monumental underwater rock formations forming swim-throughs and sheltered crevices
Dense gorgonian sea fans and colorful soft coral colonies covering exposed rock faces
Frequent encounters with resident sea turtles resting along the ledges
Strong current drifts attracting schools of snappers and jacks
