Sabang Reef
Why dive here
With 87+ marine species recorded in the area - including clownfish, lionfish and pufferfish - Sabang Reef offers some of Anilao's richest reef diving. Water ranges 27-31°C, warmest May, June, July.
Sabang Reef in Anilao is a solid choice for a multi-level dive, especially good for newer divers or those looking for longer bottom times. The reef slopes gently, offering a mix of hard and soft corals where we've often spotted scorpionfish tucked into crevices and small schools of snapper hovering in the blue. Currents are generally mild here, making it a relaxed dive where you can take your time exploring. It’s a reliable spot for a second or third dive of the day.
