Dive-site story
Located off the northern coast of Talicud Island in the Davao Gulf, this site features a shallow sandy flat that transitions into a sloping coral reef and wall. Hard coral formations such as massive Porites and table corals mix with soft coral patches along the drop-off. The location serves well for relaxed training sessions, macro hunting, and night dives due to its sheltered position from heavy swells.
Extensive coral slope with abundant sea anemones and clownfish colonies
Macro critters tucked within rubble patches, including diverse nudibranchs and flatworms
Calm, protected conditions suitable for check-out dives and relaxed underwater photography
