Dive-site story
Situated directly off the headland at Sabang Beach in Puerto Galera, Sabang Point features an accessible sloping reef covered in hard coral heads, large barrel sponges, and sea fans. Rocky outcroppings and rubble patches create ideal micro-habitats for macro critters, while the current running around the corner frequently brings in schooling reef fish. The spot is equally popular for daylight exploration and muck-oriented night dives.
