Dive-site story
Located directly off the coast of San Juan in Siquijor, Tubod Marine Sanctuary features an accessible reef slope sheltered within a protected marine zone. The seabed transitions from shallow seagrass meadows and patch coral into dense formations of hard and soft corals. Giant clam gardens and sea anemone colonies dominate the upper slope, giving way to scattered coral bommies along a sandy seafloor.
Protected giant clam replenishment area along the reef crest
Dense anemone clusters supporting multiple clownfish species
Frequent encounters with green sea turtles grazing on the seagrass flats
Accessible directly from the sandy shoreline via marked entry channels
Location
Use the map to plan with your operator and confirm the exact entry point on the day.
Seasonality
Northeast monsoon months provide the calmest surface conditions and clearest visibility along this coastline.
