Dive-site story
Fish Bowl is a legendary deep-water amphitheater off the coast of Puerto Galera, situated near the high-current waters of Escarceo Point. Divers drop down through open blue water into a large natural depression on the seabed where pelagic species congregate. Swept by strong oceanic flows, the site demands strict bottom-time management and solid drift-diving competence.
Deep natural basin acting as a magnet for open-water predators
Frequent encounters with schooling bigeye trevally and cruising reef sharks
High-energy drift dive suited for experienced and nitrox-certified divers
