Dive-site story
Odie's Wall sits along the coastline near Puerto Galera, offering a vibrant mix of a gentle coral slope that transitions into a vertical drop. Gorgonian fans and large sponges cling to the rock faces, creating rich habitat for macro critters and reef fish. Because currents here stay generally manageable compared to outer channel sites, divers can spend ample time inspecting crevices and overhangs.
