Turtle Rock
Why dive here
With 87+ marine species recorded in the area - including clownfish, lionfish and pufferfish - Turtle Rock offers some of Anilao's richest diving. Water ranges 27-31°C, warmest May, June, July.
Turtle Rock offers a straightforward dive around a distinctive rock formation. We typically find several species of nudibranchs here, tucked into crevices and along the rocky slopes. It's a relaxed site, good for photographers keen on macro subjects, or for those new to Anilao looking for a gentle start. Expect mild currents and depths around 15 to 20 metres.
