Twin Rocks Marine Sanctuary
Why dive here
With 87+ marine species recorded in the area - including clownfish, lionfish and pufferfish - Twin Rocks Marine Sanctuary offers some of Anilao's richest diving. Water ranges 27-31°C, warmest May, June, July.
Twin Rocks is a popular Anilao site, known for its two large rock formations rising from the sandy bottom. Expect to see the usual suspects here, like scorpionfish tucked into crevices and colorful nudibranchs crawling on the rocks. It’s a good spot for newer divers, with generally mild currents and an easy profile, perfect for longer bottom times and practicing buoyancy. We find it’s also a solid choice for macro photographers.
