    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    White Beach offers straightforward shore diving right off Apo Reef's main island. It’s a good spot for a relaxed second dive or for newer divers to get comfortable with the local conditions. Expect a gentle slope with various juvenile reef fish darting amongst the patches of soft coral. We’ve seen small stingrays buried in the sand here, too.
