Dive-site story
Rising out of the Tañon Strait off Moalboal, this uninhabited limestone outcrop features steep drop-offs wrapped in gorgonian sea fans and soft corals. The northwest flank hosts the Cathedral, a cavern system with swim-throughs and overhead vertical shafts where sunlight filters through overhead openings. Divers drift along coral-crusted sheer walls while scanning the blue water for pelagic visitors.
The Cathedral cavern with vertical chimneys that channel sunlight into the interior
Lush vertical drop-offs covered in massive sea fans, sponges, and black coral bushes
Frequent encounters with green sea turtles resting on reef plateaus and feeding along the walls
