    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Republika Coral Ridge is a mellow shore dive right off Dumaguete, and it’s a pretty reliable spot when you're looking for an easy afternoon. The reef here maxes out at about 17 metres, making it perfect for newer divers or those who just want to take it slow. We usually find plenty of nudibranchs tucked into the soft corals and a few resident frogfish if you’re patient enough to spot them. It’s a comfortable dive, not dramatic, but always delivers a relaxed time underwater.
