Why dive here
With 496+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blacktip reef sharks, blue-spotted stingrays, bull sharks and octopuses - Napaling offers some of Dumaguete's richest diving. Water ranges 28-30°C, warmest June, July, October.
Napaling, about 20 minutes from Panglao, offers something a bit different near Dumaguete. The main draw here is the sardine run, a massive ball of fish that seems to hang around all year. We've dropped in from a boat and done it as a shore dive; it's quite close to the coast. You’re looking at a steep wall that drops to about 30 meters, covered in corals, and usually, those sardines are right there. It's a fantastic spot for both divers and even snorkelers who want to see a proper sardine storm up close.
