Dive-site story
Located off Boracay's western shoreline, Coral Garden features a gentle sandy slope dotted with hard coral bommies, leather corals, and sea anemones. Because the reef is sheltered during the peak tourism season, it serves as a primary site for entry-level instruction, leisurely photographic dives, and second dives. Marine life here revolves around resident reef dwellers sheltering among the staghorn thickets and sandy patches.
Extensive hard and soft coral formations over a sandy plateau
Abundant macro critters and juvenile reef fish sheltering in crevices
Calm conditions well-suited for relaxed photography and training
