Dive-site story
Located off the western shore of Boracay, Lobster Rock centers around a rocky outcrop and coral bommie rising from a sandy seafloor. The site provides sheltered diving conditions during the calm dry season, making it a frequent choice for training dives and relaxed marine life exploration. Crevices and undercut ledges along the main formation harbor nocturnal critters and crustaceans, while surrounding patches of soft coral host various reef fishes.
