Dive-site story
Shaped like a surfacing reptile off the southern coast of Boracay, Crocodile Island features a sloping coral wall populated by dense gorgonian fans, barrel sponges, and leather corals. Divers usually drift along the reef face where tidal currents flush nutrients across the slope, bringing schools of reef fish and hunting predators into the open water column.
Extensive slope covered with vibrant soft corals, gorgonians, and massive barrel sponges
Frequent encounters with banded sea kraits hunting across the coral heads
Dynamic drift diving conditions along the island's deeper outer contour
