Dive-site story
Situated along the fringing coastline of Bacuit Bay in El Nido, Nat Nat features a gentle coral slope that transitions into a sandy seabed dotted with massive coral bommies. Dense clusters of staghorn and table corals cover the shallow reef crest, making it a dependable spot for relaxed macro hunting and casual reef exploration. Divers frequently encounter green sea turtles resting among cabbage corals, while schools of damselfish and wrasses dart through the structure above.
Extensive hard coral formations featuring table and staghorn varieties along a gradual reef slope
Frequent encounters with resident green sea turtles and bluespotted ribbontail rays
Excellent macro life including nudibranchs, pipefish, and flatworms tucked into coral crevices
