Dive-site story
Situated along the southwestern fringe of Panglao Island, Danao Wall features a shallow coral flat that transitions into a steep drop-off. The vertical face is undercut with small crevices and overhangs draped in sea fans, tubastrea corals, and barrel sponges. It serves as an easy drift dive site where divers typically start along the deeper wall sections before ascending to off-gas along the sunlit reef top.
