Why dive here
With 87+ marine species recorded in the area - including sea turtles, thresher sharks, lionfish and pufferfish - Ka Osting offers some of Malapascua's richest reef diving. Water ranges 28-31°C, warmest May, June, July.
Ka Osting is a straightforward dive off Malapascua, often a second dive after a longer trip. We've seen a good mix of smaller reef fish here, things like lionfish tucked into crevices and a few morays peeking out. It's a relaxed dive, good for photographers keen on macro subjects or anyone just wanting an easy cruise. Visibility can be a bit variable, but it's generally a pleasant, unchallenging spot.
