Dive-site story
Situated off the coast of Mactan, this established marine sanctuary features a sloping reef plateau that plunges into a sheer coral-covered drop-off. Resident schools of bigeye trevally congregate along the wall, while dense fields of hard coral and sea anemones shelter juvenile fish on the shallows.
