    Ernie's Point in Anilao is a solid drift dive, often with a good push. We’ve seen a decent variety of nudibranchs here, plus some frogfish tucked into the sponges if you’re looking close. The site often delivers schools of scad or fusiliers in the blue. It's a good spot for macro enthusiasts who don't mind a bit of current, or anyone keen for a relaxed drift.
