Dive Site

Dive Site" might be the most generic name going, but trust us, the diving here is anything but. This is one of those spots in Anilao where we really hit the jackpot with macro. Forget the big stuff – though a Dorado streaking past isn't unheard of – what we’re really looking for here are the Lubbock's and Black wrasse darting around, plus those ridiculously camouflaged ghost pipefish. You’ll probably spot more species of butterflyfish than you knew existed, like the Blue-dash and Latticed. The reef itself is a tapestry of smaller corals and sponges, perfect for hiding tiny critters. We love working slowly along the reef slope, often finding curious Clark’s anemonefish and their more famous clown cousins tucked into their homes. Keep an eye out for the Black-headed Leatherjacket – they blend in surprisingly well. It’s a photographer’s dream, honestly. Go slow, bring a good torch, and be prepared to spend a solid hour in one small area, just scanning. This spot really shines mid-morning when the light is good but the dive boats haven't quite swarmed yet.
