Kilima Steps
Why dive here
With 87+ marine species recorded in the area - including clownfish, lionfish and pufferfish - Kilima Steps offers some of Anilao's richest diving. Water ranges 27-31°C, warmest May, June, July.
Kilima Steps lives up to its name, with a series of coral terraces stepping down into the deeper water. We often find a good mix of macro life here, nudibranchs galore, and small critters hiding among the sponges. It’s a gentle drift on most days, making it a good spot for newer divers getting comfortable with currents or photographers wanting to take their time.
